She also gives some pretty good information too:) But the best part was meeting some other bloggers prior to the meeting. Wish you came! Maybe next time you can come to Nashville and meet up? You are not so far away, actually very close and I had no idea. Looks like someone had some great cake too.tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-18943577879995390002008-08-19T23:04:00.000-05:002008-08-19T23:04:00.000-05:00how was your meeting? i have lived here for 8 year...how was your meeting? i have lived here for 8 years and still not been to cheekwood, it's a shame!marmeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00622899170079254810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-54132740916864771132008-08-19T08:10:00.000-05:002008-08-19T08:10:00.000-05:00Opps, typo error. should read "mean" not...Opps, typo error. should read "mean" not "need" Dawn.<BR/>Faye hit land south of Marco Island---lot of wind & rain.

Cheekwood is beautiful. I don't think they have veggies though:(<BR/><BR/>Eve, Plants swaps do seem that way and I am not sure why. This one is a free for all but controlled.
