Thanks for the welcomes! Sharon, it just dawned on me that I don't have any close-ups of my little forest plants! I guess it's because there's not a lot of light there. I have a friend who is a wonderful photographer--I'm going to have to have her come over in the spring and get some of those beauties close up. I'll post a picture of the woods, though. They look a bit scraggly in this pic, but take my word for it, they're filled with little treasures. In the foreground is my still work-in-progress pond.

Mary wrote me and suggested I tell a little more about myself, so here goes: I grew up near Washington DC but vacationed in the WV mountains and fell in love. I moved to the mountains in western Maryland when I was 30--I'd always been determined to live in the mountains. I've been here twenty years now, hard to believe. I work in a non-profit health education agency--ironic because I have about three chronic illnesses--and love to write. I taught college English for a while and still teach a class now and then when I don't feel too discouraged by it. (Hard to teach something you love to a bunch of people who hate it.) I have two grown sons, a relatively new DH, three step-kids, two dogs, three cats, and TWO houses--mine and his ... sigh--plus he has a summer place on the very wild Savage River. No wonder I'm exhausted all the time! But my time in my garden or woods is time without time, and there's nowhere I'd rather be.
