My parents drove me and Etsy to Baltimore all day today. We had nice conversation, nice lunch, and nice dinner. The whole trip actually only took about 10 hours including breaks.
Etsy went into travel mode and didn't eat, drink, or go to the bathroom much during the trip, but settled back to normal once we got to the hotel. It's actually nice to know that she has a "travel mode" and what it is. I think she will fare well during the flight.
There was a mature plot of periwinkle outside our room. It was nice to see what periwinkle looks like when fully grown.
J and I didn't get to see the final effect on our Saint Paul house, but it was nice to imagine it. Speaking of which, my mom showed me pictures of the flowers at our old house. It looked like our little landscape project did at least a little of what we intended. That's encouraging for whatever we do in Germany.
J spent yesterday today tending to our flower garden. She bought some new plants and found existing living bulbs under garden fabric from the previous tenants. She removed the fabric and has a good looking garden started. The neighbors were very happy to see the work she was doing. Apparently, the previous tenants didn't tend the garden at all. More bonus points for J!
I get to hold her again in about 24 hours! So excited!

We were glad to hear the first leg of your trip went well! We're also thinking good thoughts. Yes, we found your letter and very much appreciated the kind thoughts. We were so glad to get to know you better and you were a lovely houseguest. Here's your gardening question - what is the difference between Periwinkle and Vinca Minor? Is it the verigated leaves? I can't tell the difference! LOL
