So much for the wonderful lavendar honey I had purchased for you and the rest of the Daily Drivel Gang. The concoction that was confiscated by the over zealous TSA agent is now literally a sweet memory in a trash can in the Austin airport. So much for my thought processes while packing the gift bag that held them in the bottom of it along with the other permissable presents on the top into my carry on bag!<br /><br />Now, with guilt, I've been enjoying catching up on several of your daily blogs that I'd missed. Must tell you that your pictures of the wedding attendee's with odd things on their heads are what the Welsh call "fascinators." They really are a bizzare step above a hat. LOL<br /><br />Carry on with the hobby, or should I say gift, that God has given you: an eye for knowing how to plan flowering beauty.<br /><br />JudyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353280526628627983.post-14532732393760344902011-05-07T00:33:41.376-07:002011-05-07T00:33:41.376-07:00I love this, Lydia....To have dotted the landsxape...I love this, Lydia....To have dotted the landsxape with such great beauty is definitely a legacy, whether your name is known or not. I would have loved to have seen your mother's garden.

I love visiting your home and garden and sitting on the patio just taking in all the blooming sights. It all looks as if they just "happened" but I know how hard you have worked to make it look that way.<br /><br />Lovely blog!<br />Hugs, TrishaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353280526628627983.post-90904566553069572492011-05-06T21:00:59.587-07:002011-05-06T21:00:59.587-07:00Dear Jeannie- Your angelic hand will leave its tou...Dear Jeannie- Your angelic hand will leave its touch with all the beauty you have created in your own garden. <br /><br />Dear Nikki- If I were a bunny hopping around in the dry chaparral- I would choose the juicy goodies here over what is on the other side of the fence):-Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03215242522396155812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353280526628627983.post-51376601200154905612011-05-06T20:36:12.029-07:002011-05-06T20:36:12.029-07:00Your garden sounds just lovely, Lydia.

You made a point that I'd never even thought of before............when we are gone, our yards, flowers and plants will remain.
