My DH saw your avatar and said OMG! Texas! He was raised in Odessa and loves the bluebonnets.

Hey Mplsgiel, tell dh the bluebonnets are in full bloom & so pretty. My favorite wildflower. Know he misses them way up in Illinois.

Yes he misses them. Thanks!

Hello and welcome from North Carolina.

And how do you explain the "Ugly Quilt Contest?" :?: :D

Heidi,

greetings from another North Californian. I live outside of Sacramento.

Hi Heidikins and welcome from Red Bluff, CA. What town in Northern Cal are you from? beth

I'm up here in Sonoma where spring is popping out all over. We still have frost in the mornings so we are waking up to the sound of the fans in the neighboring vinyards going on in the wee hours. It really isn't bad and once you realize what that sound is you just roll over and go back to sleep.

Heidi

Boy, you live in a heavenly area!

Hi,
I am in Northern California too. Are you anywhere near Gerber? Between Redding and Chico?
Welcome to the board

Hi and welcome to the board!!
I'm in No. California also, but near the Delta and the Grizzly Island Bird Sanctuary... midway between San Francisco and Sacramento.
You're going to love this group. Everyone is so friendly and helpful!!
They DO get pushy about posting pictures, however! LOL!
