    		 Hi Christine,  Happy holiday.  As you can see we're starting to get things under control after a rockin' rollin' 6 months and I'm eager to start getting around the site a bit more -- it's the reward for all that computer work!   I wanted to see what you've been up to since putting up your fruit-ful (!) garden.  Did you have a great harvest?  What did you do with all the Fuji and plums?  Did it overwhelm?
    FYI, we just this week unveiled The Greenhouse.   The Greenhouse has all of the questions and answers which have appeared over the past 50 year in regional newspapers for all gardening topics. I'm trying to shake up a little discussion and get everyone to chat it up, and I hope that you might have some fruit crop that you might want to chat about.  Like blueberries.  I saw that you had strawberries and thought I'd ask.  I found 5 folks who put them in their plant inventories on the site (but I know that there are more who might not have used that function and hoping you might be one of them!)  If so, would you please add a comment or two to any topic in the Greenhouse = especially one of the the Blueberry pages  (Topic of "Blueberry" is here and "Blueberries" as a topic is here -  soon the plural and singular will merge but for now, there are two separate sets of questions and answers ).   
    In addition to the Greenhouse, there are also topic and discussion areas on the Blueberry Plant pages.  Hopefully, you could pop on over there and find an interesting discussion to join - or start one.  I'll be there too and look forward to seeing you in whatever topic when you get a chance! Have a great holiday, and hope to see you growing - and more - in 2011.  (P.s.  I love Ricky Gervais - any relation?)
