CLOSED: DJ'S FALL ROUND ROBIN SEED SWAP 2012 PT 8

Blue Ridge Mtns, VA(Zone 7a)

Thank you for the seeds, Michelle. I was so touched by your note! You are an amazing person and friend.

All you in the path of the snow storm, be safe. We may get a grand total of 3" of the white stuff, although I secretly do wish for more. A prediction of just a few inches around here is enough to make folks go crazy in the grocery stores, whether or not a flake falls. Early morning news already showed milk shelves and bread racks that were nearly bare. I had planned to grocery shop today anyway, decided to go in another direction less traveled and pretty much breezed in and out of the stores.

Not to sound like a broken record, but those of you with a printer or access to one, it's easy to print your own USPS labels and get a free delivery confirmation number with each one.

8" of snow last night/today. Snow day for the kids. Which meant snow day for me too. My road didnt get plowed until after 11am anyway. I wouldnt have gotten anywhere.

Kiowa, CO(Zone 5b)

Blue Ridge Mtns, VA(Zone 7a)

Do I dare say I'm envious? You betcha and would love a snow day or three! Just locked up for the night and it's still just raining at a pretty hard clip.

Anderson, IN(Zone 6a)

Snows pretty the mood it leaves me with is not .... still snowing here ...

Mountain View, CA(Zone 9b)

Hi, all.
Fruity, glad you received the seeds :)
Actually, the conf number is now included whether or not you print your own label... Another recent change.
To those who are getting snow: For those of you who enjoy the snow, have fun! :) For those who do not enjoy it, admire the beauty. And everyone, stay safe!

I think I would enjoyy getting snowed in more, if I didn't work in a field that required me to be there no matter what. I am thankful not to be getting the storm orginally forcasted for us.I agree with you michell, that it is beautiful, but I dislike driving in it.

brainerd, MN(Zone 4a)

My tomatoes sprouted!! Peas and onions too :)

My son & I "saved" two labs tonight that were running. Saw them on our way home from dinner. After two hours and several phone calls, I was put in contact with the owner and I got both dogs back to her. She had just moved here 2 weeks ago from NC. So these dogs were running in unfamiliar territory. So glad there was a happy ending :)

Pic 5 is one of the dogs. "Dilbert"

(Pam) Warren, CT(Zone 5b)

The robin is almost home... At least a couple of people must be getting excited about winning the prize. I got it last year, which was very cool for my first robin ever, but not this year.

I'm excited about the 2nd time around for a last chance at some things I may not yet realize I need. There's always something intriguing, even if I thought I had everything I wanted.

And today is beautiful... Spring is on its way!

sun city, CA(Zone 9a)

Today is beautiful, and spring definately is here, every creature here, from hawks to goldfish, were doing what they do in spring!

Is it really finally that close to me ?????? Cant wait ????? Boy so many of you are so close to the right "back to the nest" date -- it will come down to the accuracy of our wonderful postal system as to how long they keep it out there on it's final destination !! Shall be interesting !!!! Have a great day everyone !!

(susie) Hastings, MI(Zone 5a)

Gm Well if the robin gets back into flight today or tomorrow Shirley should have it by Monday . but as you all know postal has been SCREWED UP . So Robin might not get off till Monday We will have to wait see.
