Hi everyone,

I live in LaGrange, Kentucky. It's about 20 miles northeast of Louisville. [wavey]

I'm not much of a gardener but I sure like this online community! [muggs] [clappy]

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! [wavey]

We were in Beaverton, Oregon, when I registered here.

In 2005, we moved to Ruch with a Jacksonville, Oregon address.

I made a page for people who might wonder where we moved to...

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.
