Gosh, it's been forever since I've written a blog post for this blog. I've been busy on my gardening blog though so I don't feel like a complete failure. 

My sister and I have been poring over my deceased mother's journals. Although she wasn't a prolific writer, her snippets of history come alive thanks to her superb writing. I might share some of them here. 

Spring is right around the corner, at least for those of us living on the west coast. I am sorry for what you east coasters must endure. We're beginning to see bits of life--an occasional flower, birdsong, frogs croaking. It's nice. 

Thank you to all of you who read and reply to my blogs. I'm much more grateful than I show. I will return the favor by visiting all of you. 

Cheerio,
