We are in the Local Newspaper !! YIKE'S!!

To make a long story short, a writer for the Atlantic Press stopped by our house last week and started asking question's about gardening and spring clean-up in your yard! She does the Home and Garden Section and a few day's later she put a letter in our mailbox asking to take pictures of our yard.

I said NO WAY because with the fire and all it look's like H__L!!! She promised that if I let her take some pic's now she would come back when thing's were looking better, so I gave in and let them come last Sunday!!!

Well last Saturday night DH brought home a bulldozer to dig up the front walk so we can get it re done and after about an hour it started to poor and it continued to pour until 11:00 the next morning!!!!!

They were comming at 1 to take the picture's and now not only did my yard and flowerbed's look like a TRAIN had run right through it but there was a BIG, and I mean BIG mud puddle where DH had dug the night before!!!!

I figured that they were going to cancel but they showed up at 1:00 sharp!!!!! I was pretty mortified to say the least but it wasn't so bad I guess and the article and picture were in today's paper!!!!!

I can't scan the picture but here is the article! In the newspaper but not on the website the writer's last sentence was:

"GARDENER'S LOOKING FOR MORE GARDINING INFORMATION, MIGHT WANT TO CHECK OUT.......www.davesgarden.com!!!!!!

As you can see I also made her promise to plug DG!!!!! hehe
