Ladies, I just have to tell about my visit to lodwick's house.

His gardens have 2 8ft (guessing on the height) columns!! It was just incredible. It sounded like the installation was only slightly ;>) problematic. What a treasure to own!

I have no way of knowing how much of an improvement was made during his recent remodeling, but you need to know it is now lovely. Where I was seated on the sofa I was able to look out on the back year which appeared to be "Mostly Gardens". There were hours and hours of back breaking work out there in the lushness.

Pam & I did most of the talking while JL busied himself in the kitchen. Not only did he do the drinks, but he prepared and served the munchies, as well. I was totally impressed.

Thanks for the props.

It was our pleasure, and honor, to have you grace our portals for a few minutes...after her initial shock to learn that you would be arriving shortly (and that I had done SQUAT with Mr.Vacuum) she settled back and had a wonderful time visiting with you.

Thanks, again, for making the time to come see us.

Cheers, JL
