  2. Oh my! The first thing I thought when I saw the first photo was that it reminded me of the book "The Secret Garden!" Then I read your words! You are making me long for Tucson (where I lived for two years when we were stationed at Davis-Monthan AFB)! Gorgeous feast for the eyes, Gemma!

  3. Oh gemma! What beautiful pictures! I especially love the garden wall with the flowers and vines cascading over the top ... Can Spring really be so close?

  4. I love that first photo! That one really captures the feel of a secret garden.

    And of course the one with manzanita....my oldest granddaughter is named Manzanita!!

  5. P. S. Thanks so much for asking about the job interview, Gemma. I honestly do not how it went. It was the most informal interview I'd ever been on. They laughed a few times, one of them swore (mild) once, and they talked about their love of their private campground. I enjoyed meeting them and the interview process itself, however, I came away just knowing that the job isn't going to come to me. They are interviewing at least 8 people and said they would let me know one way or the other by the end of the week. I hate sounding negative but just a feeling I have. I will just have to keep applying to whatever I can find that will not aggravate the fibromyalgia. I could stand a good dose of your beautiful garden spots today.

  6. Hi, Gemma,

    Oh, such beauty available to you. I wish I could say the same for here. I am frankly tired trying to find the beauty in winter. LOL!
