Heading south today for a week at John C. Campbell Folk School followed by a very quick visit to my brother in Alabama.
I'm always of two minds about leaving home. One one hand, it's pleasant to have a change now and then but, on the other, think of all the stuff I'll miss -- like this handsome black snake that visited our greenhouse and left his shed skin behind.
And the clematis are just getting going good and the hollyhocks I started from seed last year are beginning to bloom . . .
and there are Great Spangled Fritillaries on the dog poo . . .
Ah well . . . While I'm away my internet access will be sketchy so if I don't post, that's why. I should be back on line by the 15th -- see you then!

On the dog poo! Ewwwwwww!
Enjoy your trip! I'll look forward to the update when you get back, with photos.
Enjoy the trip.
We got home yesterday from a week away with no wifi. Hubby and daughter had a hard time, but I missed it a lot less than I thought I would. And yes, I spent a lot of time wondering what blooms I was missing at home and at what rate the weeds were growing. Hope you have a safe and enjoyable trip!

Vicki, I am sure that you and all those lucky folks at your workshop are going to have a great experience.
I recently read Graham Swift's Mothering Sunday and thought it a wonderful book about the emergence of a writer. I've already recommended it to some NYC writing friends.

Your beautiful flowers are so pretty and even that snake has a certain charm. Larry says they're not poisonous? Enjoy your trip.
Enjoy the John C. Campbell Folk School -- a place I always wanted to visit. --- barbara
