Hehe...they do have a way of doing that, jumping in the car! Ballerina on Ice is one of my all time favorites! It's an early bloomer (here) with perfect blooms...I love it! Enjoyed your pictures and know you had a grand time!

Hi there all- Yep Ann- I posted back on the 20th that I had received your envelope- thanks again for the very nice selection sent in! I received a few more envelopes today- Roflol, Clay Lady, Kliddle, and Nan6161! Whew- so many many great seeds you all have sent in! I am using a laundry basket with an alpha-accordion file for the general swap- and individual pocket manila folders for each member- and I am already running out of room with only 13 member envelopes out of 38 members (so far) sent in! That IS a lot of seeds!- OK- a lot of paper too but hey- Shilohyn - how ever many or few you send in is GREAT! The mix is wonderful too. They are sure to be appreciated by those who receive them! I hope I have been answering questions as they appear on the board here- But some of the entries are being "squished" so that I can not read them- It must be time to start a new update thread- but I think I will wait till Sunday if I can. Please feel free to contact me by e-mail if I missed your important question- Thanks- Julie

Be careful not to reward bad behavior -- so if your dog is barking or shaking like a leaf don't reward that. Look for an improvement in the behavior and reward that instead. Cat kibbles do not make a good diet for dogs. But a few here and there as an occasional training treat won't hurt. There are lots of different treats you can choose. When I said symphony was best I meant calm music is best -- if it covers up the noise. You may prefer jazz.

This piece of art (scrollsaw) is just visiting. My sister loaned him to me because I covet him. I know someone that may be able to make one like him just for me. I'm finding everyone's pictures very interesting'
