    I have been wanting (and needing) a new cart for gardening. my wheelbarrow just wasn't fitting my needs. Santa brought me a shiny new wagon!

    I love it! Now, if only winter would fly by quick, so I can get busy again! It is really going to come in handy in so many ways!
    Did Santa bring you any useful garden things?

    Lovely trolley you've got there! Congratulations, may it bring you joy.

    I could use something like that myself, and I think I'll quite casually leave this page open when I know that hubby's going to use the computer. :D

    Kay, what a super gift! I have seen these at local nurseries, so they must be very sturdy and long-lasting. The red color is good, too. That way when all the greenery is up and thriving, you can still find your garden cart!
    Somebody knows what a gardener really wants and needs!

    Very nice gift. I got an AMEX gift card which is going to be used for garden catalog shopping. :D

    What a lucky gift! That looks really handy to have--not just a pretty face.
    Happy Waggoning, Kay.

    Perfect!! Your man is definitely a keeper Kay. You're going to have years of use out of your wagon.

    Kay, the wagon looks very handy. I have seen those at one of the garden centers...hmmmm, may I should hint for Valentines Day.

    My favorite gift this year is red too, my new camera. ;)

    Glendann- I think that is so cool that your friend left you a garden cart in his will. It's good when someone puts that much thought into what happens to their belongings. Bless his heart indeed!
    I have so many garden tools left to me by my Dad.
    This new cart has sides that come down to make it a flatbed, which will be good for hauling mulch. My Bob found it at our Tractor Supply store, where the farmers hang out :D
    OOh, hurry up spring!!

    I really like Tractor Supply, I have two birdbaths and assorted other gardening things that we bought there. And now that I think about it, that's where I saw those carts!! Oooooh, the sides come off, that would be very handy for bags of mulch, soil, compost, large pots....the mind boggles. :rolleyes:

    Hi Toni, Yeah, Tractor Supply is a place I shop at a lot. We pick items up there for the Landscaping Co. I work for frequently. I buy a lot of my work clothes and boots there, as well as bird seed and supplies. My Grandson likes to shop for toys there too :) It never gets really crowded like the big Wal Mart across the highway!
