Another Excellent Adventure

No Jo, they don't eat rice in Mississippi, and we are only going to LA for one day.
Tracey, what's this "clipper sharpening thing"? I just want to let you know that I've been showing Wally a picture of that black calla every day and telling him "if someone steals my plant, mommy won't give you one more bit of steak, EVER!" and he understands!

Tracey, try chocolate on Wally!! Jo

Yes Tracey got the trimmers all ready.Cala you pay no never mind to us we are just taking a walk around your beautiful garden. Yes Roz ran as fast as ya can to meet us! lol Jo sure wish ya was going sure won't be the same without the sherriff to keep us in line. Ok Wally can't have Chocolate but he sure likes french fries. lol

Well, St. Ellen said I am not roadworthy! Imagine!!! If she keeps raining on my parades, I am going to stop asking her.

Well I guess the adventure has sorta started Tracey got to Cala's today safe and sound and I talked to her on the phone which was neat. I head out Sat morning. So I guess I am trusting all my DG buddies to keep this place well behaved while we are gone. Hah!

Gosh.........do you realize Peggy that you all are leaving me unsupervised for a week??? I hope I am still here when you all get home......LOL! Roz has told me you will all be doing group emails to me daily........ I think she is afraid of the trouble I will get into out on my own.......LOL!

*snif*....my MSN is going to be so lonesome with out ya'll!! Have a great time. Jo

I'd like to send Tracey my addy in case something jumps into her pocket. LOL Can't let Peggy get to the garden before she does!

I have only one bit of advice for all of you:
Don't behave!!!!
I've found life is much more fun that way :O)

Oh, no, if I can't go on the trip, I am entitled to do anything it takes to find solace. Now, I could start with a few brugs to replace what the locusts ate, and maybe move on to some hostas. I have never grown them, and it seems like there will be a few orphans and assorted abandoned flora in certain gardens. Yes, I think I need to fire up my cyberwagon and get busy.

Good Morning, this is Tracey, made it here all safe and sound. Susie's yard is beautiful, as usual, lots of things blooming already. We are expecting Peggy today about noon, can't wait! This afternoon we will be packing up to go to Biloxi, and on to see Roz and Gloria.

Well HELLO TRACEY! Give a hug to yourself, Cala and Peggy for me!

Not that you are all going to have time to visit DG....but presuming that Peggy also arrived safely. Have a wonderful time....and.....let's see those photos soon!! ((hugs))

Hi this is Mystic. I got here just fine yesterday.We will be heading out soon. Chele see I made it my myself.Now that means its your turn. lol Kell are you staying out of trouble. lol Jo and shoe you behaving? haha!

Well, all I can say to you gals on part 2 of your most interesting adventure:

Follow the yellow brick road, follow the yellow brick road
Follow, folllow, follow, follow, follow the yellow-brick road
Follow the yellow-brick, follow the yellow-brick
Follow the yellow-brick road

You're off to see the Blonds, in the Wonderful Land of Roz
You'll find she is a great friend of a friend if ever a friend there was
If ever, oh ever, a friend there was the friends of Roz are one because
Because, because, because, because, because
Because of the wonderful things they do
You're off the see the Blonds, in the Wonderful Land of Roz

and I am left alone thinking:

If Only I had a brain
I could wile away the hours you are gone
Conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
And my head I'd be scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain

SAFE TRIP

♫♫ Happy Birthday To Mystic ♫♫

Oh my, I fear the worse! They she be, helplessly alone with them party gypsies! (Methinks someone might learn the true definition of "celebrate"?)

Mystic, I hope you have a GREAT Birthday....I love Ya!! Ma

Oh Peggy, I sent you an email a few day's ago re your special day. What a fantastic way to spend your birthday - have a great time. Love and hugs, M.

Peggy's birthday party! The birthday is sitting; top row, left to right: Cala, her daughter, Lauren, TLynn, Roz, and Marieee

GREAT picture! Love the drinks, too!
Hope everyone is feeling wide-eyed and bushytailed this morning! ;>)

And the birthday girl right out in the front!!!! Judging by the smiles and the toasts this turned out to be a great day for our Peggy and just look at those tans!! Great photo!!

HEY! Ya'll are drinking Root Beer, Right??? Looking Good! Jo

GREAT picture! What a WONDERFUL way to spend your birthday Peggy! Y'all keep having fun and enjoy every second! Hugs to all!

Hey, gang - hi there! Good to see you all. Were those blue sodas, Cala?

"eyes"

wow what a wonderful time ya'll must be having wish i was there, its cold and rainy here in michigan! All the gardeners are indoors!

enjoy those margaritas!! ;)

happy birthday peggy

(Shhhh...I think while they're gone we should all tell what we know about them! Just whisper tho! Don't draw their attention!)

As for me, I hear tell that Cala has 6 toes on one foot! I think it means "some people are blessed with a green thumb, others are blessed with a green toe". (It's in the Botanical Dictionary, ya know.) Surely that is why Cala is so good with plants! (By the way, anyone ever seen her wear flip-flops?)

As for Mystic, I did a search...on Google! Discovered why she likes that beautiful pond she built in her back yard. Shhh...ya'll be quiet. Just 'tween ya'll and me...she, she, she has......
....Web feet! Yep. From what I hear, her hubby caught her dangling them in the pond, splashing real loud! (She's been hiding them from him for yrs!)

Course now, far be it from me to tell things I don't believe is true. I'm just saying what I know, thass all! (But, by the way,...if any of ya'll know sumpin' that I don't, I wish you'd come forth w/it! YOu know, just to share? Sharing is good!) ô¿ô

hehe Shoe...

Well, they departed from here about 8:30 pm or so.

What lovely ladies..what a fun day.

They were introduced to snow balls, goat cheese, fried oysters, fried boudion, boiled crawfish...they saw taro growing wild.."OH! PULL OVER LISA...WE NEEEEEED THAT" they saw 'nana trees all over..oh! and the hycianths..ditch weeds as I called it...

Cala's six toes did not interfere with pulling up Pickeral Weed & Lizard Tail plants either, I think it helped her balance in the mud.

gosh, I sure do love those gals...

I think I know a secret to share ........... I have this funny feeling that a man named Shoe has a foot fetish for weird feet .......LOL!

I think he goes by "Shoe" because he's got feet covered!

LOL.............all I know is I'm keepin' my boots on!!!!!


"eyes"

...they left my house and have not been heard from since..I didn't have ANYTHING to do with it..honest...
