Here the tulips are doing very well because our chilly weather is holding off their burning up, which they do very quickly after a couple hot days. Hoping the ice is at least off the canal! I appreciate your blog very much.

For others, it works splendidly. <br /><br />@Mike: the use of the passageway aspect to the design tends to feel like a throwback to things like Stonehenge.<br /><br />@Tex: the gateway makes for good framing in both directions.<br /><br />@Mary Beth: it's about a month away...
