Prince Albert was here

17 years ago

Prince Albert and his wife stopped by to visit for a few minutes. It was very nice to meet them both. Turns out he lives right by the lake so we will have to stop by and return the visit when we get back from our trip. I am anxious to see his temporary structure he builds every year over his inground brugs. He has some blooming outside already. That would be so great to not have to haul them in and out and be able to take down the structure and reuse it every winter. Sorry we couldn't have visited longer but maybe next time we won't both have so much to do, lol. Don't forget to visit the fishing forum so we can introduce you to all the fishing folks in your area too. Gotta get back outside. See you all later.

    I hope this doesn't sound offensive but I thought this was some sort of joke because of the thread title. I didn't realize there was a forum member with that name. It's fun to finally meet online friends.

    Karyn I guess you missed the entrance of princealbert. He even has a picture posted in the introduce yourself thread. Then you get to see him also

    Mary it was only Kristy that got lucky to meet princealbert.

    Maybe next time .

    Kristy you are the lucky one! P.S. Can not come over today, DH is home.

    Karyn, no joke but he did use the old "In a can" joke, which I had to explain to my children. Too funny they had no clue what I was talking about!!!

    Mary

    Where is the fishing forum? Is it a GW forum? I tried looking for one but only saw one called fish and game, and it looked like most of the posts there were old lol.

    Its www.texasfishingforum.com not associated with garden web. There is a group that posts on there who all live or fish Belton Lake. I almost titled the thread I let Prince Albert out of the can, lol. He said something about that in his original post. Guess he had to hear a lot of corny jokes growing up. Mary I remember the is your fridge running joke too, lol. It was a last minute visit so I could give him a couple of cuttings for his wife since I didn't go to the lake this weekend and we will be out of town next week. He brought me an orchid tree in trade. How cool is that. It goes to sleep at night and the leaves fold shut. I was outside with the flashlight last night checking it out, lol.

    Kristy:
    I potted the confederate rose last night and put the brugs in water to root. The wife forgot the name of the cuttings that John gave her. I didn't hear it, tell us again please. One is in water and the other got put in a pot today. I really enjoyed the visit.
    My white noids are beginning to open today. I still see lots of babies on it. I will wait until fall to cut it and the yellow one back you will get to see them when you get back. I see rosepedal got a dig in at me in the post about the turtle.
    See ya later

    Lol, she meant no harm. The cutting John gave you are plumeria. If thats what you put in water get it out right away. They need to be left to dry for several days then potted up in potting soil. Water once and put in the warmest spot you can find with bottom heat and don't water again until its bone dry and just a tiny bit then until it gets roots. There is a web site called plumeria 101 you can go to and read about them. I love the orchid tree. Its really cool. Thank you again.

    Kristy:
    I'll go take it out now, Thanks and I will check the plumeria website for more info. Thanks again.

    Rose:
    I don't get hurt feelings easily. It reminded me of the kids in Korea naming my buddy and I after animals. I have no idea why those names were chosen. We even answered to those names. That was way back in 1969.
