Keep on diggin’, Gene!

Hello all.

I am still playing in the garden, just not as much and probably not that much longer. Two years back ended up in the emergency room and came back out with all kinds of things diagnosed I did not know I had. Major was COPD emphysema sleep apnea, afib and pulmonary hypertension. Had open heart about a year ago. In rehab now. Throw in some age and there may be things I cannot overcome. All to say, I sold half my garden to botanical garden and still cannot keep up with what remains. I know the house and garden will go up for sale in the not too distant future.

But, I still try to garden a bit each day and do my best to ignore what I can no longer keep a handle on. I still purchase shrubs and trees like I was going to live forever, move things around and redesigning.

Good to see some names that have long been absent.
