I havent heard anything yet. If so, tell me where and what it is like. If not, keep on tryin ! Hi there Jenn, The saga continues & it is driving me crazy!!!! We are supposed to close on a place on Fri, 25th but another monkey is throwing in a HUGE wrench in there yet again!! All of this for the junkiest place on the river (can you say " this place makes Sanford & Sons look like the Rockefellers " . But she has Beautiful bones, not fancy but she will be oh so nice & cozy in her new corset when & if we get the chance to move in*S*). But I love the place that I have pictured in my mind if we get it - quiet, serene, peaceful & homey. Ok, garden - not - between the horse, birds & dogs I have given up. The horse eats the peaches, berries, & grapes. He has left the mints alone. The dogs love to pick the berries but will leave the peaches alone. And then of course, we won't even talk about life getting in the way *S* I made the horrible mistake of showing my DH a Raintree Nursery catalog (fantastic place - excellent products & service) - he's planted, in his mind, every apple tree you can imagine (can't take the Michigan out of that boy) & has informed me he will be buying a cider press so I better get busy learning how to make cider (there will be hot doughnuts to go with this like they do at the cider mills in MI), applesauce, butters & on & on~~~ He's already planted all the trees on the property that we haven't closed on yet - looks good in his mind I am sure. God Bless You & Yours, Georgia (hahagranny) ~~~Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away~~~ ~~~A friend hears the song in my heart & sings it to me when my memory fails~~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 hey Georgia, Don't let him leave out " Northern Spy " Apple trees. Lovely hard, old fashioned apples, great for cooking, a nice TART eating apple. I'm hoping to get a couple of those tree's when WE move. Cheers!

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Georgiagranny I have one of them Michigan boys--moved here to marry him, no less. You can't take that " You better learn to " out of them until you carefully explain to them that they're perfectly capable of making cider them damn selves. Mine decided I was making all our bread once--until he spent a day home with me when I had a full day of soaping planned, then crawled to our bed with a back that said, " I don' theeenk so " HE makes the bread.
