  • Happy new year one and all! Liked this quote!

Start with a fresh page. Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary, or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past. ~Henry Ward Beecher[/FONT]

    So heres to a new decade and a brand new year. I wait with trepidation but a sence of calm about this year! Last year was the year for cutting back and stripping down (not lterraly) and this year for lovely new leaves and branches which will be followed by beautiful blossom! Funny how the allotment so often seems to ech my life as just about to dig it over in prepration for planting!!
