Hi Achternaam,

You may or may not know, but we (Sharon's family) are moving! Things are busy around here! So excited to get to a new chapter in life. Yard sales and packing are filling the days. Going from a desert climate to the wet south will be a new experience all around. Looking forward to learning new methods of gardening!

While I'm busy with moving tasks, you can enjoy these pages. :)
