Ok Antoinette,

I'm in it.

Where's everyone else? I guess they're out playing in the dirt & mud... lol.
I am too; but I needed a break before my back breaks.

Can it be for members only? I hate to be pricky; but some of them have disappeared.

I would like to participate, but am a newbie. I understand the RR concept, but to whom do I send my info, and how?

Thanks-

Jessica

Hi Jessica,
Click on the name Gourd on the side of my post, and you can send me an e-mail with your name and address thru Dave's Garden, we call it a D-mail. Also, you have your own D-mail here, so when I respond or others send you mail, you can retrieve it under the tab that says Mail.

I hope i did not make it confusing.

For those of you that are sending me e-mails and not signing up here:


Please sign up here, the Robin will be mailed to those listed here.


Also, let me know how you all want it to be sent, (in the order of sign up) or ??? if no-one has an objection, we will mail according to signup order.

Yay...

~* Robin

Well everyone, if I had known that the box was delivered here on Saturday; I would've had it out by today. But as it is, I found it in a rain/drain ditch on the otherside of the road today. Yes; it's been terribly windy up here the past few days, and rainy too. The box is soaking wet, icky squishy, muddy & mushed; after laying there for nearly 3 days. My mailbox IS up on the side of a road. No one even paid any attention to the box, because they must've thought it was some garbage. Imagine if I didn't look over there today, as it was cold & windy out there today too. All alone in a rainy ditch somewhere... it makes me sick thinking about it. }}:^(p When I've been expecting it all this time!

So Thank Heaven Antoinette (Gourd), wrapped it all up nice & cozy snug! Every package should be that secure! Small(er) zip-baggies in larger zip-baggies, that's what made the difference. It will be out the door as soon as I get my seeds in it & get to the post office & stuff it all in another box.

~* Robin

Oh dear, how sad. Poor little box and seeds. I'm so glad that you found it though, otherwise it could have been lost forever! And thank goodness that Gourd was so super thoughtful in preparing the package. Now we can all continue to look forward to some good seed sharing!

Robin,
Glad to hear it worked out.. you never know with the PO..

A.

So...what's happening...did the robin get sent to the next person yet?

Any updates?
Caren

The box is on the way to Zindorf, in West Alexandria, OH.

I thought I responed on May 30th; but it didn't go through. My browser's been acting weird lately, bringing up old windows in mutiples & not opening new ones. I think I have to upgrade my browser. I'll post the confirmation # when I can; but the box is definetly on it's way.

~* Robin

Thanks Robin!

I received the box! It came in great shape and stuffed with seeds. Just thought I would give an update.

That's great news and also very happy it's getting around there.

After hours of fun going through the box taking seeds and adding more seeds (like a kid in a candy store!) I have put the box in the mail to ZZTopSoil (confirmation # 0300 1290 0008 1294 0629). This was fun! Hope to play again some time. Thanks Gourd for your time and effort with this.

"Thanks" zindorf for the Heads-Up.
Will be Getting My Seed Packets Ready this Weekend.

Lelan.

The Robin Has Landed in Oregon!
(Actually Landed Friday Afternoon)

My Goodness I Opened One End of the Priority Mail Box...Dumped Out the Contents on the Table Tonight...and Just About Passed Out...
Antoinette...Where Did You Get All These Seeds?
I Thought I Had Alot of Seeds!
(I Think They are Multiplying as I Type)
You Have Really Out-Done Yourself!

This is really moving quick!! Im next... Yippy!!!

Well, I thought it was moving quickly! Have you sent the robin ZZ?

Hello Everyone and I'm Sorry...It's that 'Convention Time of Year'.
I Left the Box Last Friday to be Mailed from My University Office.
I Just Found Out We Will Have No Mail Pick-Ups from Our Building this Summer so the Box Just Got Mailed on the Way Home on Tuesday(6/20).

The Delivery Confimation Number/Tracking Number is:
0304 1560 0000 9082 9045
The Box is on it's Way to...
#4- Caren(Heavinscent) in Louisiana.

I Added 40+ Seed Packets to the 'Big Booty-Bounty' Box.
There are Alot...and I Mean Alot of Seed Packets in the Box.
And...I Would Recommend in the Future to Send the Seeds Using a Flat Rate Priority Mail Box for $8.10 and Print Out Your Own Delivery Confirmation On-Line for Free...or...Just Pay the 55-cents Extra...and Use the Post Offices Delivery Confirmation Slip.
My Post Office Did Not Have a Replacement 'PM' Flat-Rate Box for the Old Worn Box so When I Mailed the Box it Cost....$8.89 to Send onto Caren in Louisiana!

Again Antionette/Gourd...Wonderful Selection and Everyone is Going to Go Seed Crazy!

Ill be watching for it!! Thanks!

Woohoo! I'm next! Can't wait!

Hi there,
Hope everyone is having a great time.

Originally, the box did go out in a flat rate Priority box, but I guess it got wet and destroyed..

Very happy you guys like the seeds.
