No real skills needed to make a homepage. If you just want to describe who or what your interests are ... all you have to do is start typing like you do on the posts here.

Yes, the Gardengirl fig is doing GREAT! Do you know what kind of fig it is?

I posted my pictures of my garden on my homepage because I know some FReepers do not have high speed Internet and all the pictures would have really slowed this Garden Thread down. If they want to see it then they can chose to do so.

Bless your heart!!!!! I have to avoid high picture threads and posts because of my dial up connection.

I literally live on the wrong side of the tracks. My best friend lives 9/10ths of a mile east of me, on the same road and on the same side of the road. She has DSL. I don't. Verizon has not come west of the railroad tracks which are less than 6/10ths of a mile east of me. And they have no intentions of coming west of the tracks in the foreseeable future.

Not sure what the proper name for your fig is. The cuttings were given to us by a friend who lives “Down East”. Think—the end of the world! Go as far east as you can—when you’re close to running out of terra firma, you’re Down East! Our original cutting came from one of the outer islands, called Davis Island, so that’s what we called it. Most of the downeaster’s have one growing in their yards. No telling where or when the original came from! It’s a bigger fig than the brown turkey, and not quite as sweet, but still very good!

I’ll try to work on a homepage—later. Greenhouse is slowing down but I’m still doing flyby’s and mostly reading hit and miss style!
