Hi Marilyn. The girls are fine...I was so busy snapping grandkid photos, I wasn't able to catch the puppies often, but here's one taken while they were playing on the floor near the toddlers....

The reason he wants it in his carport is that you enter his mostly-used door through his carport and he has a bench in the carport with a nice space for a tall plant next to it. I'm trying to think of something that would do well there in a large container. It can be a bloomer or just have interesting foliage. There is both an enclosed garage and an open carport where you enter his mudroom/kitchen area. It's not your usual place to put a plant, but Hank and I agree that something growing would look nice there if we could find the right plant.
