There is also an entire gazebo made out of glass in a similiar style, which all pays homage to the work of Louis Comfort Tiffany.

For me that usually happens when presented with an over-abundance of choices and no earthly plan with what to do with them.

Your banjo-string plucking green frogs sound delightful, Jodi, as did my haunting loons that welcomed me on our recently 'thawed' lake ... a sure sign of spring when they return.

The perennials were just thinking of sprouting. I'm looking forward to next week when I go back. This time I'll be returning with a couple hunderd pots.<BR/><BR/>Our frogs have come out too. It's nice to hear the croakers. But what is really getting to me is the sound of Sapsucker romance in the air.
