What, another year gone! Where does the time go?
My Dads ponies, three, soon to be four.
Starting this blog was such a great thing for me. Not only is it a garden journal, (now that I am in Barbados, a life journal as well), but it has given me the privilege of getting to meet all of you. Blogging has become the pen pals of today, and I am blessed with so many wonderful ones, not only far away ones, but getting to meet closer ones as well. Thank you for three wonderful years, and here is to four.
I am a floral designer living in a tiny condo in downtown Toronto, Canada's largest city. But on the weekend, I am a gardener/frustrated architect trying to keep up with a 3/4 acre garden in Owen Sound, Ontario, a warm (to Canadians, Zone 5b, and a cold (to Americans, Zone 4b) garden.

Congrats!
Your life in Barbados seems to bring some sunshine into my life on grey, rainy days…

Dearest D:
You mean you’re finished with the ‘terribly delightful’ two’s and are moving upward and onward? How blase! It has been a pleasure following the antics and escapades not only at KG but also in the sunnier climes of Barbados! Here’s to a few decades more!

Thanks Mr T, you have been a brilliant friend since the beginning, and Ian hates you for adding constantly to my wish list with very expensive plants, lol. xo

Congratulations 🙂 I may not always comment (usually when I’m reading my favourite blogs on the run – which is often!) but I read each and every one and enjoy them all.

Thank you Lyne. I know how you feel, I find the internet very slow in Barbados, so commenting has become a bit of a pain, but I appreciate you visiting, you have been with me for a very long time.
