Bill,
I bet your property is just gorgeous! I still have the photo of the white flowers that you emailed me.
Frustrating for you, no doubt, Bill, to be worried and yet unable to discuss this with her. It reminds me of how we cannot make a person chose not to drink. Its their choice, for better or worse. I am , however, very glad that you do not want that old drink. You enjoy those fine things in life... the dog, flowers, trees, nature. What could be better, dear friend? Dog is the most loyal and loving thing in the world, I think.
hugs...
