Hope you have a wonderful day, though it might be soggy.
Happy Birthday, Doss!
Doss, this is Voss.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Have a wonderful birthday my friend!
Thanks for all your kind wishes. I did have a wonderful day - in fact I had a wonderful week. I went to lunch and dinner and breakfast with many friends through the week and this morning I was lucky enough to have breakfast with my granddaughter, DD and DH. I had crabcakes benedict. Yum.
I love the rain, just wish there were more of it!

Sounds like a perfect day. And I agree, more rain. I thought this system was suppose to be stronger.
Promises!
Missed it by 17 minutes - glad you had a wonderful day!! I love crabcakes too. We got lots of steady rain here. Pool is getting over-filled.
More here this morning---it rained most of the night and we had some gusty winds, too.
Thanks soils...
Well, I'm glad that there is snow in the mountains then. Most of the rain missed us but I sure won't have to use the sprinklers for awhile which always makes me happy. I think that the plants like the rain lots more than they love the sprinklers.
I agree Doss. I still have iceland poppies and violas to plant. I hurt my back and couldn't garden, then it
got way to cold. This week they have to get in the ground. The next storms are suppose to hit the N. Bay.
Happy Birthday, Doss. A rainy birthday is a very good day and if you didn't get enough rain, it looks as though there will soon be more on the way.
Socal, the cookies are lovely and the santa plate is truly awesome.
It was way too cold to plant claudcat. How do iceland poppies do for you? I have't had very good luck with them. I love violas.
And thanks for the wishes wcgypsy. I hope that we get some of the rain that is destined for the Northbay.
Doss, I know it's too cold but, they are just sitting in their 6pack cells. I've had great luck with Iceland Poppies.
They are a fav of mine. I bought them at the perfect time then my back went out. I love violas too and
the combo is sooo pretty. I hope I can keep these plants alive in their cells. :(
Sorry about your back claudcat. The poppies and violas will be beautiful combo. I sure hope that they like staying in their cells too.
Doss, I just called Summer Winds and they said it's not to cold to plant them. They both like the cold and we didn't
a HARD freeze so, they should do fine. Wish me luck!!!!!!
Good luck! I know that the poppies really like the cold weather but wasn't aware that violas did too. Hope that they both do well. Then you can post a photo so we can all see them.
Iceland Poppies are one of my favorites...until the rain beats the blooms to a pulp ! They look so pitiful when they're laying there all flattened down by the rain. Poor things :( !
That's for sure :(
Thanks so much Jules. That is beautiful water there. I'm looking forward to this year too.
