thanks, gary for the comment and information

we were aware of the website desertusa.com

we will probably be in death valley at the beginning of April and according to the park rangers the wildflowers will still be there if the park continues to have rain…we are hoping they will continue to have some rain…

however, we are heading into arizona and utah desserts and there should be some nice wildflowers there as well

thanks again honey bunny

hey guys, your not in austin any more. i hope you have an opportunity to see the desert wild flowers in California before they are gone. doug, rick, and i went into the anza-borrego dessert park today (sunday.) Brenda, this is the park we spent Christmas in several years ago. At 600,000 acres it is the largest state park in California. The flowers and views were spectacular. it apparently rained some friday and saturday.The hiking was great. we didn’t make it to the waterfalls (Rick was too lazy!) but they are supposed to be great this year. I hear reports that the wildflowers in death valley are some of the best in the last 30 years. That appears to be the case in borrego. please check out the the desert wildflower watch on desertusa.com. Gary

No fun being sick on the road. Get well. Brenda, don’t worry, I’ll put the games away!

Don and I have heard many times that DisneyWorld is a “tourist trap”. We didn’t want to comment negatively on that to you since we had not been there. Winter vacation in Florida for us was playing golf in Naples. We are guessing that the Biltmore $35.00 fee is a bargain in comparison. Enjoy the rest of Florida. Weather should be beautiful.

Brenda was correct in her assumption that Golden Corral was not worth the long wait. There is one here in Aberdeen. Dinner has loads of selection of everything including desserts. Of course, it is known for the price. Dinner for two is around $14.00 here. We have been here and I had the chicken breast, lots of fruit, veggies and two desserts.

You are wondering about the correct use of the apostrophe in parent. As a self-appointed grammarian, I will help you with the placement of the apostrophe used with parent in the possessive form. Although parent is plural rather than singular, the apostrophe does go after the “t” instead of after the “s”. Clarifying this will make your day, right?
