Allison, that would be great if I could get a ride with you, but I can't travel far from home, and my Dad and friend Karen want to come, too. But if my brother can get the car fixed on the weekend of the 12th then I can come in my car, I just can't do any overnights like I wanted to, as I'm already spending too much on the car. After this I'm putting money away in savings for emergencies like this.

ok just let me know.... I am potting up some of those mums for you as soon as I get some more soil.. I ran out.. hopefully they will make it

Allison you and I talked about the potting soil I buy. 3.8 cubic feet. If I remember it was 18.50 a bail. If you still want it let me know.

Framingham, MA(Zone 6a)

Ge. I learned to love coleus... so yes, I would like some cuttings... specially if they are lime green... love it!

thanks

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

Allison's cuttings got me through last summer! Then the mouse made a house in the pot they were happily overwintering in. Next time they're over-wintering in a hanging planter!!! I ended up buying some from Dale_A_Gardener, so I'm fine, Allison. Plus I am totally unclear whether I am able to come or not...

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

Sherrie is 4 bails too many for you to deal with?

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

If anyone is interested in some mint cuttings let me know... I have a variegated one ... and chocolate mint

Allison 4 bails are too much if I have to carry them on my back :-)

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

ok... get me what ever you can... and let me know...LOL

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Yes, here's hoping for picture perfect weather. This weekend was gorgeous here, too. I got a lot done in the gardens. Could have done more if I hadn't promised to send so many people daylilies (grumble, grumble!).

Karen

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

guess I am traveling lighter than I thought... no one is speaking up

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

fingers still crossed for no frosts

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

yeah I know... I do have the greenhouse worse comes to worse... that should keep them safe.. if it comes down to it

Louise I forgot to tell you I took cuttings of that greek oregano... they are too easy to root btw.. love that plant!!.. I gave some to my mom and she is going nuts ... absolutely loves it

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Allison - I'll add the greek oregano to your list! Thanks!! Louise

Questa, NM(Zone 5b)

Yaay, Kassia's coming! Victor, bring your kids! Sam's coming and he'll need someone to play with.

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Oh, I'm so glad Sam's coming, Harper. Yes, Victor....please come!!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

I really do wish I could be there! I am taking the kids to the Army football game. Looking forward to it. Never been there.

West Point?

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Yes - never been there for a football game.

S of Lake Ontario, NY(Zone 6a)

DH has played in a few handball tournaments there, I saw a football game from a distance, but never close up. We haven't been there in awhile, we'll miss you at Louises.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Thanks. I will miss everyone too.

They really do it up. The cadets come out. There is a skydiver who lands on the field. There is an area for the kids to play and get autographs before the game.

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Victor - I've been to football games at West Point, and I know you and the boys will really enjoy the game. It's impressive for the kids to see! We will definitely miss you!!! But have a great time!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Thanks. Same for you guys!

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Thank you! Let's hope we all have great weather!

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

I just checked the weekend weather forecast for Saturday here. It is 68 degrees and SUNNY! Yippee! (ok, ok, I know it's early, but it looks good for now!)

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

nice!!!

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

lets go with that.
Sorry I will miss you Victor.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Thanks Jo Ann - me too.

Thomaston, CT

How can those cadets compare to us---really, Victor! DH & I went to several football games there---MANY years ago--it was fun, the boys will like it.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Hee hee - true. I'm looking forward to seeing the 'cadettes'!!

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

NOW it makes sense!! lol

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Hee hee. Can't resist a woman in uniform - or out of one! ^_^

S of Lake Ontario, NY(Zone 6a)

ah ,Victor

Thomaston, CT

Oh, Victor is right!

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Would each of you please vote either "yes" or "no" for a raffle? Only 2 have expressed any interest so far, and I think we all need to know if that's a go or not!

As you can see, "Lydia", our tractor has been moved into place to serve as the beverage station (we use her bucket to hold the beverage setup.) LOL And this area in front of the wall is where we'll be setting up the chairs. Hank has cleaned out the fireplace and it is now ready for a big cauldron of fresh corn. We both feel so honored that so many of you are coming quite a distance to join us! It should be quite a relaxing day!
