This was my first swap ever, It was so much fun!! Thank you to everyone for waiting for me to get there. It sure helped take my mind off of the death of a close family friend and I rellay needed that. Thank you for a great time.

Thanks to Carmen for opening your home and garden to the troops. It was wonderful!

And thanks to the generosity of the attenders I came home with some of my 'most wanted'! Uncharicteristic of me, I got all my treasures in the ground yesterday and will not have to chastise myself for torturing my poor plants.

Unfortunately my brug had an accident taking it out of the car and it broke. Will, I stuck the broken part in the dirt next to the stem part that was left unbroken. How easy are these to root? Does it stand a chance?

Thanks for hosting the swap Carmellia! We had a great time and it was great to see some old garden friends and make some new ones too. My new found treasures and "garden junk" will be in my garden soon.

You were all very welcome in my home. Gayle and I had a wonderful time too (I think I maybe hogged the "hostess" credit a litle bit. Alright, more than a little bit.) Gaye and I worked side by side putting everything together. She even helped clean my house.

I am already looking forward to the next one in Owatonna and promising myself I will be prepared for this one. But, I guess now is time gather for the seed exchange in January.

Happy planting, everyone! Carmen Carmellia
