I find the effects of February travel don't quite hold me over until spring so I think your March idea sounds more sensible. Two days ago when the snow was melting I imagined spring wasn't too far off; yesterday it snowed. Today it snowed. I have been shovelling the driveway and thinking very blue thoughts....

Chin up - any way you can. -kris</em> Congrats on your article! Travel is always a great way to stay sane for me.

Susan, I love the “waiting room” – so true! I’ve been putting off pruning at my house – I walked on the beach instead on our last sweater-weather day. But maybe if I just get out there – on the next dry day – I’ll feel better… -kris
