Yes... the Keyhole Garden article was listed as one of the five most read. Interesting and I've found people from around the US linking to that article in particular.

Bubbles, I agree on the photo page. This month I loved the garden sculpture entries. They had even more entries shown on their site.

It is a generally fun and interesting magazine. Kristi

We get that publication here at our house too.

They do have a neat site that highlights the different communities in east Texas if you are interested and have a little time Melvalena.

It's nice to read that people take Retirement Planning Road Trips in Texas like we do. There are so many diverse areas in our state. We used to love the Desert West Texas/El Paso. Now we usually head to the Gulf coast. I think we have selected Aranasas/Rockport/Corpus Christi area. I love the beaches down there and the laid back life. It would be a new challenge to grow in sandy landscape but I would welcome it.

WOW.. I've been hibernating! Sorry for such a late reply to your post SGT. I considered the coast but haven't been down there to check it out.

Its too dang hard to get hubby to go anywhere or do anything... so I guess all my planning is just dreaming.

But its a nice little dream.

Melvalena, I am glad to hear that others have husbands with feet firmly rooted at home. My husband was all for moving to Corpus after our last trip there. He even picked up Real Estate brochures, newspapers so we could research home pricing and all the areas. Then suddenly he tells me, "I don't want to move!". I agree, moving is overwhelming. The thought of it makes me sick, actually. But I would love to be at the beach for my Golden Years! Dream on! Dreams never die and sometimes they do come true!

Yep.. just keep dreaming. It keeps us off the streets at night.

I'll work on getting hubby to take a vacation some time.. one that we actually go somewhere and have to spend the night away from home!
