A Gardeners Forum Forums Members History Forum Life 2007 Stopping in to see Sarah

In March Sarah accepted my offer to dig up some Iris for her, that grows wild along the irrigation ditch in front of my Son's house. (No, I'm not just getting around to it, 6 months later... fall is the best time to move that kind of thing!) I dug up some of it Thursday, because I knew that my Granddaughter & I would be making a road trip yesterday to do some shopping 90 miles north of where we live. Sarah lives half way, so I had the perfect opportunity to get "Iris 2 Sarah" off my list!

Whenever I've gone shopping up there this past year, I've been able to swing off the freeway & stop in at Sarah's to see the progress being made on her new house. The last time I was there, in early August, this is what it looked like:
Aug 2

And here it is now:

THAT'S what I call progress! (Now I know why she hasn't been around here much... she's been playing in the dirt in her spare time!)

WAY TO GO SARAH!

She has the cutest autumn decorations on her front porch!

(How odd... I didn't notice a car parked in her livingroom when we were talking to Abby through the window!)

We found her at work, but she wasn't on duty; she was loading plants into a big box... it looked like she was buying them all out!


We chatted & showed BG where the birds & bunnies were inside, then Sarah grabbed her new ride & posed for the camera!

Honest! SHE'S the one who said that's what it was... not me!

I didn't know that it was her birthday until I got home last night & saw her birthday thread!


She didn't tell me, either!
(And to think that I could have baked her a cake before I left home.)

Aw, that's so Awesome, Patty! I didn't know you were going to Sarah's this week!

Wow what alot of changes , it's looking great Sarah!

Oh, man...she has really been working in that yard!
It's beautiful!

Nice to see her picture again, too.
I miss her!

It is very nice to see her again..
And that house is just sooooooo beautiful....
I can't get over it...

Hey Sarah, I think you need to tell Patty where
"Lefse" lives, so she can go grab some shots of him...
Whatchya think, think he'd go for that??

Anyhow, Patty, thanks for sharing those..
It's nice to see "Barley's" doin' okay!!!

*P/S That job looks like some fun.. I wish we had a place like that that's close and busy*

Oh it is very good to see Sarah again. And the house is looking sooooo good!!! Thanks for sharing Patty!

i'm impressed, i need to make it west!

Great visit!!!

Thanks for sharing pictures Patty!!


Sarah nice to see you!!!
Love the yard!!! Love the color of your new ride the racing stripes on the end of it is cooooool!( and not the one parked in the living room!)

Wonderful pictures of what looks like another great visit!
Thanks so much for sharing them Patty, and thanks, Sarah, for allowing us to see how much you've accomplished on your beautiful new house - looks terrific!

You have worked really hard Sarah. It looks beautiful.

Wow---it looks AMAZING!

Thanks for the pics Patty.

Although I've traveled in the direction of Sarah's neighborhood a few times since October I was always rushed & never got the chance to stop in & see her... but yesterday my trip north was a more leisure one. I found her at work (I think she lives there) & she was looking great!

The Feed Store has undergone a face lift since I was there last, & appears to be more of a gift shop than a place to buy feed, grain & flowers! They even have a variety of enameled cookware & I found the frying pan I've been looking for!


Here she is by a valentine novelty display. (Notice that cool tree, made from doweling & feathers! What a great craft idea!)

She was all smiles & bubbly like she was when I first met her, & she was looking so darned good that I totally forgot to ask her about her shoulder & her Advil/aspirin ulcer!

Looks great and so does Sarah!!!

Glad you got to stop and see Sarah again.
Wow, that does look like a gift shop!

I'd spend money in there!

She's looking great! Glad you had a chance to stop by and see her!!!!

Me too....looks like a cool store!!!!

That store is way cool!!!! And it smells so good in there with all the candles and stuff!

I love scented candles...I'd buy one for sure!!!

Great;-)

scented candle junkie;-)

Meee too Loz , $$$$ <-- I'd buy!!

Sarah you look wonderful and Happy!! Thanks Patty for posting this!!

She does look wonderful..

I can see why she likes her job,
it looks like a fun place to be.....
