Thanks Barabara!
The snow has all melted away and they seem to be doing fine. We might get some more tonight though -- and then Spring is supposed to be back! #7412970

Hi Joanne, Kim, John, and Kirsten. Thanks so much to each of you for your comments. Glad you enjoyed this one -- and I am also glad all that snow is gone now! #7421360

This is beautiful Carol! It reminds me of something Stephen Zacker would come up with. Have you seen his work? It's all mushy love stuff...

Love it! :) They LIVE! (I wonder if one knows the other is there??? Ask Stephen. HE WILL KNOW!!!) Ha!

Carol, update. We are getting dumped on today. The snow was almost gone and now it is totally white. :) Joanne #7425105

That is too bad! It was 70 here today. I actually got too hot working outside in the yard. I heard a rumor we might get snow later in the week though. I have decided it just never ends. #7425406

Hi Laura! Thanks for stopping to look at this one. I do know Stephen's work. I like it a lot too. Don't know if I can compare, but glad to hear you liked this. I felt sorry for my poor tulips that day. But at least you could still see most of them. The poor daffodils were completely buried. #7425447

Oh. It's definitely comparable. I was taught early on from a pro BP'er to do TIGHT CROPS. With a real tight crop on this one, You and Steve are twins. Try it and feel the extra DRAMA! :) !11
