Yes - Hello Loretta - How interesting you adventure in the garden at Vail. WOW!! I think I would have had to go out and buy a camera or just make that my home. Those plants you mentioned like the cool - which we do not have during the summer. Though I\'m trying to imagine coneflowers with columbine - pretty no doubt. Thanks for the tidbit on mint - I have some old tarps folded up in the garage - may have to give that a try. It is a mess - growing among cattails. Also, thanks for the pea pod info - I may have to go pick peas and take them to an old fencerow somewhere where they could be more welcome if they get carried away.
That was a fun thing with the purple finials - they are actually glass finials that had discolored over time so I purpled them with a little spray paint (like new again). Hope you enjoyed the wedding.

I\'ve picked 4 buckets of tomatoes this morn and now it is tomato canning for a couple hours. Then maybe I\'ll go check out my zinnias.
