Hi All From NW Florida

Guess I should introduce myself! I've been visiting DG for the last year or so but only subscribed recently - opens a whole new world doesen't it? Now I'm spending Hours here! We have lived on the doorstep of Eglin AFB for 13 years. My DH retired from AF 7-8 years ago and we stayed put. Our household includes 2 doggies: Luke the Labradoodle and Toby the Boston. My buddies! Besides gardening (or trying to) I walk every AM with neighbors,belong to a small book club (it's sometimes all I can do to get through the one book a month!) play Bunko with the neighbor ladies, lift lightish weights, and try to keep up with our 4 grown kids and 1 GS. Pleased to say HI! And I need all the advise I can get! Jen

Hi JenniferG!
Big Welcome From Stockton, California. Know you will love it here. I had never heard of a labradoodle so I just looked it up. Very interesting. On the same page was info on a schnoodle. They are all so cute!
Enjoy!
Donna

Thanks PM! I love our doodle! He's cute and smart and at 3 hasn't had any health problems. Like labs he's been very enthusiastic and a bit of a handful. But the rascle in him settled a little after the Boston, 1 1/2, came into his life. Just the thing,really. They keep eachother busy! Jen

Welcome, JenniferG. I love Labradoodles and Boston Terriers -- one of my dearest companions was a Boston. Glad you became a subscriber!

Welcome from the hot state of Texas to you....

Thank you, Whiterose! Yes my Boston is very attentive. He's always by my feet. Or under them! :) Jen

Thank you, Moonlighting! Where is Needville? We lived in San Antonio a couple years. It was as hot there as it is here in NW FL. Jen

Welcome Jen...I hope you know that you are in the right Garden...Jo

Hi Moonlighting! Needville, Not too different from SA. J

Vi! Thank you for your kind invite. I looked at your link- sure looks inviting! I think I won't be able to make it this time :( What forum do you advertise these Round Up - so I can keep an eye out? Jen

Why Miss Jen, the RoundUp forum of course! http://davesgarden.com/f/roundup/

Sorry you can't make this one, but we'll watch for you in the future. Just look at the plants being offered for "trade" and watch for pictures to follow in the RoundUp Photos forum, we'll hook you in soon enough!

Jennifer....Would an old, grayhaired lady lie to you?? You will kick your self if you don't take them up on the invite to the GA Round Up...Wish I was closer so I could go...You would have a GREAT time.....I am going to the KY one...my son only lives 3 hours away from that one. Maybe someday....!! Jo

Hi JenniferG!
I am right down the road in Panama City. Welcome to Daves and am glad to see another Panhandler here.

Weeds...."pandhandlers"....aren't those the guys that beg on the streets??? hehehe... Jo

Yep, except i don't really beg, just hold a sign that says will work for plants.

Weeds...That's a good way to increase your plant inventory!! Jo

Thanks Weeds! One of these days we should meet! I loved the pix of your pond! Very nice! Lynne Haven isn't too far from Ft Walton B.-our closest neighbor. Jen

hi jen, welcome glad to have ya, you'll be missed at the roundup!

Hi Jen, and welcome to the biggest garden on earth, and the best. You think you have trouble getting through one book a month, I'm afraid you just blew it by comming here, but this is gonna be more fun for sure. See you around!

hello jen - this is the place to be. you can learn anything you want from these nice folks. see you around

JenniferG, yes, we should get together sometime.....

Weeds, Sounds good to me! You've got mail!!! Jen

I replied to your email and it came back as uknown. Try to email me again, I will be over your way this weekend...

Hi Jen, I am also a new kid here. And a neighbor. I live in Niceville and work at Fort Walton Beach Medical Center. I have been gardening for a while and I built a pond a year and a half ago.

Hi Rylaff! Thanks! Welcome to you, too. We live awfully close! Come for a visit! You've got mail! Jen

JenniferG
Did you get the email I sent you the other day?

Welcome to Dave's JenniferG and rylaff! A far away wave
from sunny Saskatchewan! :) I'm getting our pond plants
in today, before our nasty loooooong freeze comes along.
Our Cocker Spaniel and Shitzu are trying to help in any
way that they can....especially by getting underfoot while
I'm carrying heavy pots of water lilies. ;) I'd better get
back out there and make hay whilst the temps are good!

p.s.Now that you have joined Dave's your yards will never,
ever be the same! :))

Rylaff, Oh dear, no I didn't. Please try again! Jen

Lilypon, Thanks so much! Weeds said to say Howdy! SO Hi! You've got mail! Jen

Howdy Jen...you've got mail! :)

I just resent the email I sent you the other day.

Rylaff, I still don't have it. You've got mail! Jen
