Thnks!!

Thank you to all for the kind words.  I feel like I have been thru the 
blender.  I know many of you have had the experience and truly understand.  
All family have departed except for my brother from Calif who will be going 
home tomorrow.
    Still raining and temps down to 40 last night but, wow, the garden looks 
like a jungle with its lush growth.  My husband took down the Prariefire Crab 
which I think I talked before about its displeasing growth habit.  I'm not 
sure what all is looked at when selecting a tree of the year but obviously 
this is not included.  It had beautiful spring color and is disease resistant 
but .....  I am replacing it with a Pagoda Dogwood which I talked with a 
nursery last fall and they are holding my pick. We had to remove a PD when we 
added on the garden room.  I love the layered form and all-season interest of 
this tree.
    This Sat is my granddaughters graduation.  We have a big shebang (several 
hundred in attendance) Sat afternoon with ceremonies Sat eve.  The quilt I am 
making for her is quilted and now to add the binding and much back art.  She 
has lofty goals which will begin as she heads for summer school.  We 
purchased a lap top for her yesterday which will be a real asset.
     Tony, have you retd from your grandsons graduation?  Grandchildren are 
grand!  The saying 'If I had known grandchildren were so wonderful, I would 
have had them first' is certainly true.
    Thanks again to all, you are all so wonderful.  I can't believe how much 
this group is a part of my life.
    Ceres
