Oh you missed a nasty winter! Arizona would've been the best place to be. Have a great spring!

Welcome back! I'm glad you had a nice winter away. It's been a doozy here in the Maritimes but spring weather has the snow melting slowly and I'm sure we'll be seeing robins soon. Have a great week! Pamela

Hi Millie Sweetie...
Looks like you had a wonderful time while visiting our beautiful state. I wish I had known you were coming, I would have loved to have met you. I live in Phoenix.

I am tickled you got to enjoy our beautiful weather, and to see one of the Cub's games as well. I love our desert surrounding. We have been here for 25 years and I love seeing the mountains and cactus every day.

Let me know if you come back for a visit. Would love to meet you sweet friend. Many hugs and much love, Sherry

Party Day…Our Deck

Rhondi is hosting a porch party, and I am very excited about seeing decks, porches, etc. from many places, encompassing climates and decor of all sorts. We don’t have a porch, so we are welcoming you to our deck today. Please keep our Manitoba climate in mind, as you will notice our summer is just beginning, and plants are not very advanced yet. The afternoon sun is highlighting part of the table, and the rest is shaded by the umbrella. I have set the table in green and white, and because it will just be two of us , it is casual. Before the sun goes down, let’s see what else is on the deck….    another table with some lanterns and plants.. ..a bakers rack which I sprayed light green and which holds green plants.. ..a bench with more of the tropical print…   …and a grouping of potted plants Looking out at the yard, the sun is streaming in from the West. the days are longer now and it is still light….at 8:45… …and now finally night has fallen…it is now 10...
