    10 years ago today I purchased the gardenstew.com domain name. The website wasn't actually online until a bit later though. Time flies :eek:

    And for those of us who enjoy our participation on/in the GardenStew forums, etc. it is a Happy Anniversary, indeed!
    This is also a sad day, too, as it is the tenth anniversary of the terrorist attack of 11SEP01...

    Think how boring the 'net would be without the Stew! Thank you, Frank, from the bottom of my heart and monitor!

    Thanks all! Just a quick note to add that it's not our official 10 year anniversary - that's on January 25th next year. I'll plan something special for that :stew1:

    Gosh where has the time gone? It doesn't seem like ten years we've been here so we must feel right at home.
    I'm going to put the 25th January on my notice board in large red letters. Can hardly wait for the celebrations to begin.
    Thanks for al the work you've done here on our behalf Frank. :kiss:

    WOW, happy anniversary GardenStew.com domain. I have been here almost 9 of those years and it certainly doesn't seem that long.

    When my computer is shut down and I reopen it, I have my browser set to open 2 windows. The windows are set with my email and Gardenstew as the home pages.

    That happens on my note book "the toy", my phone and my computer. I think that's devotion, for sure......

    XOX XOX to Gardenstew.
