Your photos are all outstanding.<br /><br />I'd be tempted to cut out part of the fence so as to never miss the forsythia in bloom. That's one gorgeous photo. <br /><br />Thanks for the comment you left on my blog. The sister wives part made me laugh out loud because as I added the turkey photos, I was thinking turkey wives. <br /><br />donnadonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06950476333013336671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-68519834480264140512011-04-01T15:40:48.901-07:002011-04-01T15:40:48.901-07:00Well, I must say, that I have been enjoying my con...Well, I must say, that I have been enjoying my container gardening here in Vegas as the weather has been perfect lately! I do however, LOVE to visit your garden and "imagine" what it would be like to have to wait for breaks from the rain to walk in my garden to see what's happening. I'm ready, I really think I would like it. Hope you get your dry day soon.

But I can understand that you are longing for sun and dry days, of course. <br />I love the Navelwort 'Starry Eyes', a plant that I am not familiar with. Thanks for the tour through your garden.
