[Umbrian]

Happy Christmas to all my friends, both new and old, who, through this wonderful Forum, I am able to keep in touch with more easily. It is one of the highlights of my day to access the Forum and read all the postings especially during the winter when weather conditions often prevent much activity in the garden So thank you to all those who work so hard on behalf of the forum, the experts who answer questions, the members who post such interesting topics and wonderful photographs and the administrators who keep us all order!
May the Forum continue to flourish and HAPPY GARDENING 2012 to everyone.

Carole, Thanks for your warm Umbrian greetings! And forum members, thanks so much for being such an interesting, entertaining and tolerant bunch of mediterranean gardeners, and for getting the forum off to such a brilliant start in these last few months!

Here's a greetings card to you all, from me and Helena - it could have been a Where Is It, but instead I'll spill the beans, it's what we saw when we went to Yosemite before the wonderful MGS trip to California a couple of years ago.
