That turned out so dang cute!!!!!!!

LOVE it!! She's adorable, and boy, you've got such a beautiful yard. You really did have the perfect spot, and I love seeing her with the plants in her crown. Is she comfortable to sit on?

Thank you, ladies. LORI: I confess - I seldom sit, and I didn't try her out yesterday. After Juan and crew put her in place, I still had to discuss w/him plans to extend the fountain surround (work begins Monday afternoon), and have him rearrange some mosaiced cinder blocks. Then I planted the crown, then had to walk Toby to the park. I live six blocks from a spring-fed lake, and we walk around it every afternoon. After all the excitement, I had a drink on the patio and sorta fell asleep on the new patio sofa. Life is much too busy during the day to do much sitting.

LOL, thus the internet handle, SLOWMEDOWN. Apparently, even Cleo can't.

SLOW! How awesome she looks!!! Love the whole arrangment!!! I am trying my hand with Euphorbia this yr, I bought one called Black Bird!!! It would look good in Cleo too! I am so excited to see all this in person! Just 34 more sleeps!lol! I too think your yard looks Lovely!!! That pillar with Cleo is inspiring me to get the "new to me" cement mixer rollin'!!! I have just been swamped with work!grrr, but it's okay!

Slow, she's gorgeous, I actually think she's better than the original. She looks great in your yard, you chose a good setting for her, she just stands out so well.

Thanks, Cindy. I sorta like her better than Sam's too. Got a note from Sam saying the tail on hers is naked. That can easily be fixed, said I, and I'll see what I can do about it next year. She has other projects for me to do, so even if Riana doesn't get a class there next yr., I'm going just to work. Hope you and Jane w/join me. There's enough for all of us to do.
