Hi, Annie, and welcome to the list! I'm not sure if this post will go
through via the list, so I'm sending it to you separately as well. It sounds
as if you are really ready for the new year. I am getting ready to start my
3rd year at gardening (and Square Ft. Gardening) and really looking forward
to it.

Enjoy the list! My posts have been bouncing lately, but nobody else seems to
have a problem. Take care and Happy New Year!

Leslie
