I started the copy of "Birds without Wings" that I'd gotten from the library. Then I realized that the book was going to take time to read and I had a stack of other books that were due back at the library, so I ordered the book from Amazon. It will come soon, and I'll read it at my leisure. Thanks for recommending it because with just the little reading I did I know I'm going to enjoy it.

I sympathise with trying to keep gardens going in adverse conditions and with prolonged absences. Every summer I work hard to get my French garden in some kind of shape, only to have to leave it to its own devices for the rest of the year.
