I was saddled with 12 years of accordian lessons thanks to The Lawrence Welk Show. Wasn't his name Myron Floren or something like that? I used to want to hunt him down like a dog.

Wonderful show to wake up to on a Saturday morning. Thanks, Kathy!

Kathy, do you by any chance, know the name of the Iris in your next to the last row of Irises, that is in the center light blue?
I had one that looked like that on the Cape, never knew its' name.
Thanks!

Boojum, Love seeing your garden exploding with Peonies and Iris at least on the computer as well as all the choice other goodies. Doing our Nursery crawls up here this weekend. Going north today to Rocky Dale after Newfane stops. The truck is filling up fast, home tomorrow to see what we are missing. Patti
