I'm afraid I won't have much garden by the time Staynot gets to me, Should be sometime around Thanksgiving the way I figured. He can help me make pumpkin pies!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Oh my, may I come with Staynot? Wait, I can't have to make pumpkin pies for my son. Oh well. Can't wait to have Staynot visit me. He is so nice.......

Noblesville, IN(Zone 5a)

Oh goodness he will be here close to Christmas. Guess he can look at the houseplants and eat fruit cake.

looks like Staynot is just going to miss the 4th here, but we will at least go to the zoo and some of the parks near downtown, and maybe to the lake. I would love to take him down to Galveston, but after Florida's beaches he will probably be disappointed LOL

He is having such grand adventures already! My gnomes have been chattering for days about what to do for 'entertainment' when he arrives. They better behave themselves! Take a look at what happened last time one of them went traveling! I hope they learned their lesson.

ROFLMBO!!! That picture is priceless!!

LOL @ Pixydish!

Staynot had a very mellow evening last night, watching me organize my filing cabinet. I think he was bored to sleep. Unfortunately, we got rained out of our beach adventure, but we really needed the rain!

jojo kindly suggested that I keep Staynot over the 4th, since I was due to put him in the mail today. So rather than have him confined to a box while everyone is having fun, he'll come to the beach on Friday for fireworks and a BBQ! Then Saturday morning, he'll head over to Texas!

Birmingham, AL(Zone 7b)

Hey,
Just wanted to update everyone. I'm heading to Missouri to visit Family and friends starting tomorrow and won't be back until July 13th. I won't have much access to Internet so I won't be able to update much. I will try my best to check in when I can. If some wants to volunteer to watch over this thread while I'm gone please Dmail me and let me know.

He should definitely spend his 4th in florida! Spending a holiday in a box is no fun at all.

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Absolutely keep him in our fair but hot state for the 4th. He can't leave until he has seen the bikini babes at the beach--now can he?

Have a good trip to Missouri, Staynot's Dad. Enjoy!!!! We will try not to let your little son get into to much trouble.

Noblesville, IN(Zone 5a)

Pixy I hope you keep a better eye on Staynot. Bad gnomes

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Well here is my gnome Alaska. He wanted to meet my sister's pygmy goats--Mary and Pippins.

He will love having Staynot come visit him.

Wonder what there planning ...too cute.

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Actually had to move hime there as Pippins was trying to butt him!!

Caption: Ah come on, share that Dorito! Yeap, sister had placed a dorito back of Alaska to get Pip to raise up there!!!

abbisgranma- Alaska is so handsome and he looks like a hard worker!

We had some showers again tonight, and afterwards Staynot did a quick walkabout with me.
Here he is hiding under the brugmansia.

I think he was trying memorize Latin names on the succulents.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for nice weather tomorrow so Staynot can enjoy the fireworks!

Oh WOW!! Your brug is Gorgeous!! Staynot is gonna want to have an outside campout under the beautiful brug....gee, I wanna come have a campout under there!!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Oh goodness, from a newbie brug owner that is wonderful. Can't wait til Alaska can look at mine!!!

Everyone have a wonderful, happy and safe 4th..

Makshi, it's so hard to keep and eye on them all the time! They are so small!

Lucky Staynot being able to hide under that incredible brugmansia! We can't grow them like that up here. Mine has one measly bloom and I'm brug proud!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Happy 4th to Staynot and all his friends!

South Venice, FL(Zone 9b)

Staynot wishes everyone a safe and Happy 4th!

jojo, Staynot will be heading your way this morning.

Onwards, to Texas!

Whiteside County, IL(Zone 5a)

LOL. Nice July Fourth display!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Safe trip Staynot. Jojo don't you be bad to this guy when he arrives. He needs a hat like mine!!!

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

LOL I'll take care of him! And he will have a hat! I promise! I'm hoping to get to Galveston and take him on the Elissa, the tallest sailing ship still in service. If it's open and running when he's here. It will make a great pirate ship!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Wait for me!!!!!

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

Arrrgh w'ell put on our hats and comandeer her matey! I'm sure the crew will be too surprised by 2 women in red pirate hats and a couple of rogue gnomes that they won't know what hit 'em!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Oh but it sounds like a plan to me!!! Hellooo Beaties!!! Can I bring Alaska?

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

Of course Alaska must come. He and Bailey will be our scurvey crew. Since Staynot is still young he can be cabin boy! Yo Ho!!!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Oh I can hardly wait.

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

LOL Lord help us if we ever manage to get together!!!!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

....are you implying we could get into trouble? If we do, make sure we have our protector gnomes with us!!!!

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

Bailey says as long as he has his liquid courage, he can handle anything!!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

That's fine if Staynot's Dad isn't worried about us corrupting his son. I guess he is one his way to you now, Jojo?

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

Yup I'm guessing I'll get him next week! I can't wait! We are definately going to the zoo and a couple of the big parks downtown. They have a really neat Japanese Zen Garden that I haven't had the chance to visit, may be a great excuse! I'm going to try really hard to get to Galveston, but depends on the weather when I have a free day. If not we may have to try the aquarium downtown or the one at the zoo

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

I'm going to have to do some rough figuring to see when he comes to me. Have some ideas but it will depend of time of year. Think it might be end of August.
