Dave: Do you know how happy you've made many folks? This is a much needed website and I know it will flourish and grow, as the best tended gardens always do! I look forward to leisurely wandering around this garden, gaining knowledge and growing friendships along the way.

Worth waiting for.... it will be a joy to be part of this new, important gardeners site. I really like that it remains linked to Cubits.org.
"Let's Grow Together".... someone said....was it Trish? Can't remember. But, it's appropriate.
“Don't give up too quickly"... unknown, I heard it somewhere.

It's growing very quickly already. At this moment, I see there are 48 forums, 18 articles and 22 blogs. I have no doubt that soon All Things Plants will be HUGE!

Dave and Trish, I want to tell you that you manage to bring out the best in people. So many of us never knew we could learn computer skills, but your careful, patient, easy instructions gave us the courage to build a "home" in our own little corner of the internet. And you've given us your friendship as a bonus.

Congratulations to you both!

Mornin', All....

"It really is great to be back in the saddle, so to speak"

Ride 'em, Cowboy! This'll be another great ride and adventure, eh, Dave? So far so good. Sure is easy to get around the site. And there are lots of posts in such a short amount of time to get ones attention and hold it. Great going.

This can only get better! With all that has been learnt, this is the icing on the cake!

I've been watching with interest the growth for a few years, and changes made albeit recently more forced they have to be for the best in the end!

I might even find time from my bugs to get involved! Whistling Rolling on the floor laughing

Dave,

A simple thank you to you and Trish does not seem nearly enough. But it is sincerely meant!
