Back Online
by Kathy Purdy on May 2, 2006
I just moved to a new account with the same webhost that I’ve had all along. It took longer than I expected but everything seems to be back to normal. Let me know if you run into any problems.
Kathy Purdy discovered the joys of writing in fourth grade, when she started corresponding with a former classmate. She's been writing letters ever since, first on looseleaf, then electronically, and now as weblog entries. That makes you, the blog reader, her pen pal. Her first independent (though frustrating) attempts at gardening were made in high school, though the gardening bug didn't bite hard until her mid-thirties, when she found herself mistress of a rural home on 15 acres. •

Despite these losses and setbacks, like King Sisyphus, gardeners forever keep rolling that rock up the hill, convinced we are progressing toward the day it will stay in place up there and not roll back on us, the day our gardens will be just as we want them.

Love the plant slide show. I am always taking pictures of my plants. Husband says you took pictures of them last year. I will take pictures of them next year.
Yay! You’re back! And someone had the iceman post for you.
