Re: Feb

Snow essentially missed us, but the wind is gusting out of the north  
at 30+ MPH. Getting ready for our Extension "Gardener's Palette"  --   
a full day of classes and vendors. Have 250+ signed up to attend. I  
have to work the MG table, but because there won't be business during  
talks, will get my education fix as well.
