It really does look nice, Johno. I like the pic of you and Heather... you guys look really happy. I saw on the idig thread that you guys have been married just 7 1/2 years... practically newlyweds! Is she going to chime in on your blog? She could do a piece on the travails of the (long-suffering?) wife of a gardening philosopher! (I don't blog, because I'm afraid of exactly this happening with Andre! He'd just type comments like "Well, THAT'S an obscure reference!" and run away.

Keeps me grounded, that one does...)

PS I managed to comment on the newer post... really a question, but I was so excited that it worked (remember... computer luddite here...)

Thanks, lav.

We've been together for about 11 years. Actually, I had the hots for her since we were kids. We met at an Easter egg hunt when I was 5. Almost kissed her at the county fair when we were in jr. high. We both decided it was good we got to go out into the world on separate paths first.

I'm sure she would have lots to chime-in about, though...

Thank you for leaving a comment. ;D

For anyone else who wants to comment, I'm told it's a simple matter of registering so you can sign in - much like registering on a gardening forums. Is that the case, lav?

In person, it would be easier to see that my honey bears no resemblance to a Latina, but the smile sure is the same! Thanks for the compliment - I'll pass it along.

I remember you posting a pic of her a long time ago where she was standing in the garden, and the coloring was totally different... but they're still both pretty.

I joined google blogspot last night cuz of Johno's blog and one other (oops forgot Alan now has a google blog as well)...

But I tried to search for their blogs while logged in and I got nowhere fast.

Something else that bothers me. If everybody has their own Blog, think of how much time it takes to visit each and every one?
Johno doesn't post on forums much since he's made his blog.
Alan either it seems?
I guess they are a good thing. I just see it as a "parting of the ways"

I just started my blog a few days ago. Thanksgiving was since then. It hasn't been long enough to say whether I'm posting less or not. It might reduce some, but it won't be very much. The blog doesn't take long - I just pull up my screen and start free-writing.

John went to your blog and clicked on ads there.

Would appreciate you (all of you) doing the same at my blog boulderbelt.blogspot.com.

clicking on ads on blogs generates $$ for the blog owner/writer and you do not have to buy anything.
