THANKS... FOR STOPPING BY!

I've wondered if my little garden blog would ever make it to a secret goal I've had. I don't know why, but from the start I figured 50,000 pageviews would be an accomplishment worth noting. It happened this week and for this next couple of seconds I'm going to take a break from garden blogging.......there. That was nice.
Ahh...nothing like a nice break to refresh the senses.
Now back to work!

Thanks for stopping by and I mean it. I've made so many garden blog friends and have enjoyed trading visits to gardens all over the world. That's the most important thing about all of this; to have friends and to be a friend. I'm delighted by all of my visitors and hope you enjoy this little garden we call Tropical Texana along with its lively hodgepodge of characters...

the plants,

 the people,

 the stories,

 the critters,

the chickens,

and the drama

.....and the work!

The Plants (Buddleia davidii 'Nanho Purple') my newest plant. Click on the name for the Missouri Botanic Gardens plant information

The People (my son with a stray cat found along the street....we found the owner)

The stories....(another cover up?)

The critters...(these are little dragonfly nymphs I found when moving the pond)

A face only a mother could love.

The chickens....(wonderful art work by Daniel, one of my 2nd grade students)

and the drama....(Azalea buds already? Will they bloom or get wiped out by a freeze?)

...and finally the work.

Now it's back to work with a new pond for those dragonflies.
