    Looks very nice. :D Rocking chairs sounds about right on that porch.

    I dreamed about you last night, Dooley. And about Glenda too. I was going to try and visit you. Glenda had put up signs so I would turn off at the right junction. When I neared your place I had to start walking. It was very hot and dusty, and I had to walk through a maze of high walls and tiles. This maze could have tigers hiding there from the midday heat. I was sneaking along when a small, white dog with DR in tow came in to fetch me and keep me safe from the tigers. :D The things people can dream!

    WOW Dooley what a great looking property and so much garden space to play with. Just think - you'll have plenty of rooms now for all those bears!! :D I can just see you, DR and Glenda all enjoying time together sitting in your rocking chairs with Chance and Oreo an your feet. I'm so happy for you.

    Wow, what a great house. Oh, yes, enclosing some of the porch for plants would be great. If one of those windows is your bedroom, having a view of those plants to look at would be very nice.

    Droopy, just what did you have to eat and drink just before going to bed??? ;)

    Best of luck on your move...it looks like you're going to a great place. It's always fun (and a lot of work, too!) to start over with a new garden, and it looks like you have a blank slate to work with. It's a good time of year to move, so you can get settled in before the holidays. Enjoy your new home!

    Toni, your enclosing idea sounds most charming. I wonder if you'll have a special bear room, dooley?

    You're welcome, I'm sure. :D

    Nothing unusual, I assure you. :D I dream about people I know quite often, especially if they have been on my mind a lot lately. The worst is to dream about colleagues, I feel like I've been working all night. :D

    Wow, what an exiting adventure! Your new place looks just wonderful, so much ground to dig in and play in!!! You'll have a whole new turf to garage sale too, lol!

    Very nice big area for you to do some really great garden work with. I can see what some rich color would do for that front yard already!

    Hmm, I have an aunt in San Antonio and a B.I.L somewhere near Lubbock, maybe I'll just make a road trip of it and we can all meet up there, lol! (I know it's a little ways from Essex but my in-laws from just outside London came over this year!)

    Somehow I missed this when it first posted. I was just talking with Glenda and she was describing Dooley's new house. Dooley and dr will have more house and yard than they know what to do with, says Glenda. I know the three of them are getting so excited. I think it will be a wonderful arrangement for them. Strange how things work out! ;)
