Vicki,
My Mother in law gave me a Christmas cactus and it blooms right around Christmas and also around Easter. Don't know why, but always have blooms right before Easter.

If any of you ladies are ever in Las Vegas plase let me know. There are so many things available to people they never see unless hey know someone who can take and show them the sites. I can house at least 3 people here with me, pools, exercise rooms, tennis, libraries, pool tables, saunas, jacuzzis, shuffle board. The desert skys are so clear it seems like you can reach up and touch the stars. Lake Mead a man made lake here in Vegas houses the Hoover dam, a site to see. One thing is that from May to October "ITS HOT." Its also a hard place to keep on a diet. there is so much very delicious food here and very reasonalbe usually. Boy, do I sound like a tour guide or what?

I think Grand Mesa and Bookend Cliffs are beautiful. Grandma lived in Grand Junction and a view from her windows of both.
The desert is a beautiful place, but I want to live close to the ocean.

Chatty, depending on what happens in city pool tournament, we could possibly be there in August. APA Nationals. We'll see.

Your posts reminds me of dividing perennials and sharing them with friends. It's llike giving a piece of yourself away. I have a few plants in my garden that were given to me as gifts when my mom died. Instead of giving a flower arrangement that is gone in a week or two, it's nice to have something that reminds you of the person who died every time you walk out your door. My sister now has an azaleas in her garden in memory of Mom, her mother-in-law, and father-in-law. Just thought it might be something for others to remember.
