And now on to another topic. Our lovely friend and caretaker of our Florida home, Andrew, has sent photos to show us how our landscaping is behaving in our absence. There are definitely some turf problems. I say "turf" with a smirk on my face since those pokey green things that stick up from the dirt are about as far from grass as a Milky Way is from real chocolate.
The putting green aside, we're happy with most of the rest. In the following photos please note the bouganvillea that is eating the house as well as the two potted robellini palms by the pool that have never looked better. But the biggest surprise of all -- our recycling of the holiday pointsettia of 2007 -- has yielded wonderful results!
Looking forward to my spring break visit . . .

Wow, it's a jungle "down there". The pool looks very inviting right now. The kids are going to have such a fun spring break with you.

Today's word verif: happe
LOved the Milky Way/real chocolate comment and
the flowers do look great. The pool is almost too dreamy as I'm dealing with snow, wind and mud for the next two months. :)You have come a long way in re: to your feelings about FL. I was thinking back to when you first moved down there...Life is short and we all need to be content with where it leads us, making the most of what it has to offer. You are so good at that!
