	We have and I am glad that the last bulbs were planted on
	Sunday...the ground is getting frozen and we have had several
	hard (killing) frosts. I fear for my largest old bearded iris
	bed that is covered with oak leaves and (gulp) a few too many
	weeds. :( My excuse is that I now have two gardens 30 miles
	apart and have put my energy into the new one...weak excuse.

	*** SNOW on the ground covering the flower beds this morning
	and it is still coming down. As Celia quoted correctly from
	my posts last winter:

	Snow blankets the garden,
		the gardener forgets the struggle.....(maybe in January ;)
