POINT OF PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

IF IT PLEASES THE CHAIR
     In bodies that abide by parliamentary rule, the US Congress, boards, clubs, organizations and the like, you can some times ask the chair to rise to speak on a point of personal privilege.  And so I do today.  
I enter into the record 
LANA THE GREEN THUMB

     This is to brag about the love of my life and her incredible gardening skill.  She is a remarkable artist and gardener.  I offer my case.
Before
This is the back hill 5 years ago
After
Lana's touch and some design work
More of the story
 Some of the original ice plant has been saved,
but she's created hill side space for succulents and drought tolerant plants

 She has found the deer & turkey fence not only protects the plants, it provides space for design touches 


 Some of those touches include her own ceramic work
 After a couple of years of frustration, she's found
a good combination along the front walk


There's also the "Indiana" garden-stay tuned.
See you down the trail.

  2. As Taylor just mentioned, good creative work. Tell TD to put down the camera and get to work. He may not have your green thumb but hopefully he has a strong back and is able to follow simple instructions.
