    I love your dad's gardens. Iris are my favorite flowers and he has some lovely ones. Thanks so much for sharing your great pictures of his beautiful garden.

    BEAUTIFUL! Karla, what if you print some of your favorites on to fabric and make a quilt. You can call it "Dad Garden". I bet it would be a blue ribbon winner....
    Tell Dad we are reallly impressed.

    I really think you should give it a try. Maybe a photo of the farm with Dad in it would be a nice touch, too.

    Karla,
    Your pictures are beautiful! I would love to stand there and smell the lilacs.....They don't grow in Florida and I do miss them!
