This past winter was exceptional at around 12inches, but that's possibly only the second time I've ever seen it so deep.Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08640322232670777125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798548726043864530.post-39972069428404442232009-09-22T23:06:56.116+01:002009-09-22T23:06:56.116+01:00Hi Tatyana - Thanks!

I know he was doing some teaching on the day so I don't suppose he celebrated too much. I've sent him a card last week which should hopefully be arriving in the next day or so.Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08640322232670777125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798548726043864530.post-23901755084035164452009-09-22T19:40:57.683+01:002009-09-22T19:40:57.683+01:00Hi again Liz, fabulous photos once again.

I’d say I love the sawflies but the hairs on the back of my neck tell me I don’t ;-) <br /><br />It’s got cooler here this last few days and no butterfly could be out today with the winds we’ve had.

But then I came to your blog and noticed where you live! So I just have to deal with the snow, if I want to be around my family. :( You have a lovely garden and blog.<br />RoseyChloe mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02265196480664185330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798548726043864530.post-91294721374773042522009-09-21T14:30:20.408+01:002009-09-21T14:30:20.408+01:00I love how you called cosmos plants - cosmos tree...I love how you called cosmos plants - cosmos trees!
