Hello everyone! I live in Le Sueur, MN. That is about 55 miles southwest of Minneapolis/St. Paul. I am just starting out gardening as I moved into my house in the country a year ago and am falling in love with gardening. This is an awesome place to come and chat with people and I have learned so many things from everybody here. Thank you so much!
bbbbbbbbb All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

Hi! I'm from Orient, Adair County, Iowa. I'm 13 miles from the nearest town in any direction...so I'm pretty much in the middle of nowhere and loving it.

Home is Joliet, Illinois - about 40 miles SW of downtwn Chicago. Zone 5a or 5b depending on where in the yard you stand. Joliet is home of the beautiful Rialto Theater as well as Stateville Correctional Facility of 'Blues Brothers' fame (well before it Prison Break' or 'Break Out' or whatever that shiw is called, lol!

Its supposed to be winter here....my grass on my front lawn is green. Normally its -15 here and lots of snow!!! WE are a big tourist town and have a ski resort, so we had better get some more snow and soon, the hills are open to ski on, the resort was lucky to have some really cold days to blow a good base, but if we dont get more, that willl be gone too.
