Uh Hi!

Well it's been a long time hasn't it? It's like old home week when I got
home today and saw all of these emails from folks I have always cared
for so much. Almost like going back in time. I want to say hello to
everybody on the list and I have missed all of you.


I did close down my business this year after 8 years because the rising
cost of energy was just making it so it wasn't worth it anymore. We sold
out every year but without a lot of money to increase our size I was
working about 3 months for the energy companies. Besides I have to tell
you that I am tired...so was Linda. I ain't as young as I used to be. We
did good though! It was a great ride and we have appreciative customers
all over the world. Pretty amazing. Now if anybody so much as whispers
hibiscus I'll have to kick them in the shin! Just kidding Cathy, I'm
happy to answer anybodies questions to the best of my ability. I still
bow to the greater knowledge that is present on this list.


So, howdy!  Hope you are all well.

DF

Yeah, it is bad.  Y'all need more reservoirs for sure.  That's the only
thing that got us (barely) through that 2 1/2 year drought that ended this
past June.  Looks like we're slipping into another one though - we've had
burn bans going on since Jan 1st.  We have lots of lakes and plans for
building a few more since it is normal for us not to get rain from May until
late September.  But that last stretch was ridiculous.
