And I didn’t mean to nag like Mom used to — just to say, your blogging is appreciated and was missed. :-)

Happy spring! I actually have bulbs starting to peek out … yippee!

It just happened–more like a state of mind that I couldn’t control. Oh well, spring’s here and that’s that.

FF–thanks for the links. Burning Silo I knew but Sparkleberry Springs is great.

Missed the blog and look forward to anything concerning gardening and nature! The snow is receding right now and leaving mud in its wake but, believe it or not, mud is a welcome sight!

I was a little worried there, what with no new entries and no “gone fishin’ ” sign on the home page. I’m glad you’re well and plan to keep blogging.

I’ve been on walkabout around the blogosphere as well (it is winter still!), so I offer these nature blogs for you to check out:

Niches: Native Plants, Habitat Restoration, and Other Science Snippets from Athens, Georgia

Burning Silo: A place where nature, photography, and writing meet

I agree, gardening doesn’t seem to be enough — I’ve been digging (ha ha) into ecology blogs too, which my geek side really loves. I’m really starting to wish I had about 10 acres with streams and forests and all that stuff instead of just a back yard. I’m about to go pick up “Natural Gardening in Small Spaces” by Noel Kingsbury, which I ordered at Borders.

I also just acquired Armitage’s guide, and it is excellent. I vetted a lot of my plant selections for this year with his advice.

Good to see you back!
