Hello everyone!

I've been posting away here, and figured it's about time I introduced myself. I live with my family (husband, son, daughter, 2 greyhounds and a cat with an attitude) in Watertown, Wisconsin, which is a town of about 25,000 located midway between Milwaukee and Madison. We've rented all our lives, but finally decided to take the plunge and buy a house. We have nearly an acre on a little hilltop on the edge of town, and we love it!

Last year was the first year I've been able to have a real garden (other than just plunking a few plants in the border between the sidewalk and the house at the various duplexes we've lived in). I had so much fun with it and I can't wait until things start to come up and bloom this year. At the moment, I just have a border and a small garden near my front porch, but this year I'm planning to expand. Bit by bit and year by year...I'll make this place more plants than grass. ;)

I'm already loving this community and I'm so glad I joined. What an excellent resource and a great bunch of people!

Here's a picture of my garden last year. This year I'm hoping it'll be even better!
