Well said, Ann. This is my favorite thread too because it's like Baskin-Robbins! (Note bird reference
).
I applaud Melanie for the tremendous job she does as moderator. Her expertise with raising butterflies leaves me in awe, and I've learned a lot in the short time that I've been on this site. It's educational - and highly entertaining. I'm happy to contribute to the plant database, LOVE seeing everyone's photos, enjoy the stories about your gardens - both triumphs and tribulations - but mainly I log on because....well, it's fun. Great group of people here.
