I sent you an email, and as soon as I hear back from you, I hope to add you to the Garden Blog Directory, so that more gardeners can meet you. Is there something similar to the Garden Blog Directory listing Finnish gardenbloggers? Well, we are all happy to meet you.

I can translate it wholly if you want, but the gist of the entry is that I'm "complaining" about how beautiful pictures can be found on the blogs of the Garden Blog Directory and that if I had more time to garden (and didn't have to deal with our lovely Finnish climate...) I actually might have a chance to create something as beautiful. So basically it was a pitiful attempt to be funny and to provide other Finnish gardenbloggers links to foreign gardenblogs :) Anyway I'm tremendously flattered that you like my pictures!!!

Anyway it does seem to me that she can only be reached through the comments. Situations like this really make the Latin handy!

Can you pick out something that looks like "Profile" or "Contact the Author"? And I am not going to pester the author to translate the site. I am sure he/she has better things to do. I would like to know if there is a free translation service out there that will translate from Finnish to English. Yes, but I can’t contact the author until I get an email address.

Look at all those repeated letters & umlauts. One of my high school teachers is a Finn and we had a Finnish exchange student at school; we corresponded for years. And yes, it would be unlikely if the author did not speak English, I think it's a requirement in school there. Perhaps the author would provide a translation of the entry for you.

I couldn't find a translation utility (tried Google's and Babelfish and they didn't offer a way to translate a web page from Finnish to English. All I really want at this point is a way to contact the author. Do you know it is Finnish or are you just guessing?
