For the latest news on the Midland, California reunion
and the chance to say hello to former Midlandites,
Please visit the area of
my website dedicated to the long-gone desert mining town where I grew
up, and where so many of us hold such dear memories. What an unusual place
to have lived!
The Midland Reunion was great!! Hope to see you again in 2007.
Fall stayed a long time this year. We were able to open
the windows now and then even in November! I finally brought the rest of
my houseplants inside around Nov. 14th. We had a light snow that melted in
the morning.
I have been devoting more time to a hobby I started
30 years ago, African Violets. Back in the 1970's I purchased some violets
from a local hybridizer. Sometime after that Richter's Greenhouse in
Highland, Indiana sustained significant damage in a spring storm. Mr.
Richter closed his business. I still have three of his violets, none
registered; "Topps", "Kaper" and "Parson's Wife". I regret
loosing a girl-leaf violet with "cabbage-like" greenish white blooms many
years ago. Aside from the Richter's violets, I have mostly minis, semi-minis
and a few species. I have been working on pictures now and then.
We hope you enjoy our Website and find it useful, fun and informative.
God Bless!

My daughter in Australia just pointed me to a most
interesting website! I first learned about the world's oldest and rarest
trees on earth after my daughter's husband sent a video about the secret,
wild area west of Sidney. The rare trees are being propagated in a
conservation effort. Now you can even own your own Wollemi Pine!
Visit the website to
learn more about this wonderful prehistoric relic.

I don't get anything for saying this, but I
choose Hostica for most of my web projects.
