I don't have to be mega rich. A modest lottery win would do it!



Do not pay that kind of money! Anybody who wants a fox for a pet can have the one in my backyard for free, hehe.

Not sure what he was looking for :o).

Probably skunk turds.....yummy!

Lucketts, VA(Zone 7a)

Likely looking for small rodents such as mice and voles, which make up a major portion of its diet.

Damascus, MD(Zone 7a)

I could have told him where the groundhog lived ;o).

Dover, PA(Zone 6b)

LOL

Vienna, VA(Zone 7a)

That doesn't look like a red fox; maybe it's one of those silver foxes. Sally, get your keys!

Silver Spring, MD(Zone 7a)

great photo, Donner!
impressive looking guy...

Lucketts, VA(Zone 7a)

I regret to have to say that I will be out of the area at the time of the swap. Pat (ecnalg) will still be in attendance.

Frederick, MD

Serious bummer, David ! Was looking forward to you giving me some good ideas for some of the new beds I'm putting in. If you won't be out of town long, I'll send some food home with Pat for you.

Lititz, PA(Zone 6b)

Oh that's a bummer GT. I'm glad Pat will still be able to come though.

Lucketts, VA(Zone 7a)

Cam, I'll be gone most of September. I would like to stop by sometime as I live fairly close by.

Anne Arundel,, MD(Zone 7b)

lookit here greenthumb, I'm trying hard to get time off and you MISS it?? Harumph.
just kidding!
We will gladly have Pat standing in for both of you. We're so sorry you can't make it!

Frederick, MD

That would be very nice, David. You and Pat are welcome any time !

Silver Spring, MD(Zone 7a)

So sorry to hear you won't be there, David! :-( We will miss you!

Dover, PA(Zone 6b)

We will miss you David. It is always so nice getting to spend some time with you.

Silver Spring, MD(Zone 7a)

We'll miss you, David!

Lucketts, VA(Zone 7a)

David will be doing remodeling work in Texas. I have been there since the 31st and just got home late last night. I wish we would both be around for the swap since it is an event we both really enjoy. My brother just got down there about 3 weeks ago, with furniture due at last later this week. We sort of camped out in various rooms under plastic while all the popcorn ceilings were removed and repainted.

Anne Arundel,, MD(Zone 7b)

Sounds like an adventure, Pat!

annapolis, MD(Zone 7b)

Thanks to the offer of a ride there and back with Catbird, it looks like I will be attending!

Ditto on your being missed Greenthumb will have to talk Monarchs and Milkweeds with other enthusiasts! Glad you will be coming Pat! Have you gotten all of the popcorn dust off yet? Is this the bro who stores movies by Director?

Sallyg, hope to see you and Mark 'fashionably late'. O'm sure CAM will still be gathering inputs pn his planned plantings....he's such an open to suggestion guy!

Looking forward to catching up with all, Speedie and Catmint will be so good to see you both!
Donner are you sure your husband won't come with you, I'd love to talk groundhog/badger with him again.

Aspen, any chance that Cheryl will still be in town?

Silver Spring, MD(Zone 7a)

yay, so glad you can be there, Coleup!

Frederick, MD

Me too !!

Anne Arundel,, MD(Zone 7b)

I'm really glad that works out for you two, Catbird and coleup.
I am approved for leave so Mark and I should be rolling in just after two

Frederick, MD

Excellent, Sally ! Yay, the guest list is growing ! :)

Baltimore, MD(Zone 7a)

Glad it worked out for you, Sally. Better late than never.....:o)
Robin will be driving me and coleup so we can get there earlier.

You can always cut it shorter with all the plants.....pass outnumbers--
and then they can duke it out in an orderly fashion.

***Give them the DG website--so they can read up on the plant they chose.

I will be dropping the plants off around 11-ish. AM.
Any particular place I should put them? There will be 3 trays-full.
If not--I will put them under the tree....OR--would you prefer the deck???

Damascus, MD(Zone 7a)

Looking forward to meeting you, Lisa! It is always great to have new people joining us.

Frederick, MD(Zone 6b)

I talked to my friend Theresa last night (some of you will remember her and possibly her sister Angela, brother Tom, or parents from previous gatherings)... she's planning to come and says she'll dig a few things while trying to get the weeds under control. LOL

Frederick, MD

Great.... Jill, let me know if her sister Angela, brother Tom, or parents from previous gatherings ;) plan to come also.

Frederick, MD(Zone 6b)

LOL yeh, I typed that a little too quickly, didn't I? to clarify...

Some of you might remember Theresa from previous gatherings. Her brother Tom, her little sister Angela, and her parents have been to one or more of our plant and seed swaps, also.
