March is such an unpredictable month, but I think we're all so ready for signs of spring that our patience is wearing thin. I was surprised when I got back from AZ this week to see crocuses finally blooming in my garden. Don't worry, Donna, spring is moving your way.<br /><br />I wonder if it's legal to garden topless in Illinois?? I don't think I'll try it, though--too many thorns and pointed branches. LOL, my neighbors would complain, too, if I did this:)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1466749561761906021.post-79169603741448739752010-03-23T15:36:00.382-05:002010-03-23T15:36:00.382-05:00Donna you have such an good eye for things and als...Donna you have such an good eye for things and also a good sense of humor!<br /><br />Thank you for stopping by today.
