YAY!! I've been waiting to hear when this swap would take place for soooo long! I love all of it!! The food, the plants, the goodies. I think it's perfect. I like the location as well. I'm excited to bring my parents with my this year, as I've been bragging about it for so long.

Hi folks! Granny!!!!! Of course you count!!!!! I'll take pictures of the Mail Pouch "barn" and other stuff so Lee can show you on his computer. Beverly hasn't even seen them yet! I broke my little finger and am waiting to see the hand specialist to be sure I didn't damage any tendons or ligaments. I hope not. This nine fingered typing is for the birds! I keep trying to use the splinted finger and typing really weird stuff! I also pulled the muscles of my chest badly enough that they thought that I might have a broken rib. Sheesh! I'm still going to find a way to pot up those last few plants! There is NO WAY I'll let if spoil my once in a lifetime trip with the boys. We're going snorkeling, para sailing, catamaran sailing, swimming with the dolphins and even some time for just laying on the beach! No heavy lifting for me until after the cruise! I'm overwhelmed with all the stuff I need to do in the next two weeks so I'd better go make another list and start checking things off! Barbi, was that you who wanted the baby arborvitae? I'll save them for you. I did dig up the campion that seeded itself in my stone path before I hurt myself. (*again*) They are a nice biennial. Mine are white but Beverly has some rose ones so who knows what color the seeds the bees made! I have Solomon's seal that needs dividing and some salvia that seeded into my stone path too. The candy tuft jumped the path but it might have to wait 'til fall. I can't wait to see Betty and Ron all the way from Michigan. I keep killing my forget-me-nots! Wonder what I'm doing to them? I hope everyone is doing well and my penchant for injuring myself is not "catching"! ~~Mimi

For some reason I haven't been able to log into Garden Web until today, but I want to add my thanks to all who made this swap so much fun -- it was a blast! I brought home aboiut a 1/3 of what I took, but that was fine by me. I got a good look around at everything before we got started, and when I'd gotten the things I was interested in -- I stopped! Learing some discipline in my old age, I guess. A couple of people mentioned the were interested in the Spring Hill Nursery sale in Tipp City. I can't go, but I got an email about it this morning, so I thought I'd pass it along.
