I have this HUGE llama van that can carry hundreds of plants. We can work
the entire states of North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia in the time
it takes for the guys to golf in the Caribbean for a week. We DO have the
edge.
Think I'll go practice night now . . .saw some very handsome(and huge)
camellia plants in Prosperity (population 400+several) for $14.99. Think I
can get them in the ground before DH returns from golf. If not I can hide
them. He never looks beside the guest house.

By the way, the birds are really into the spring thing and I saw my first
snake. THAT is very early since we still have very cold nights. When our
daughter built her house, she lived in our guest house for a year. 4 year
old grandson loved to find snakes and would run around yelling for someone
to come shoot them. I honestly do not know how little boys learn so young to
kill. But I would go get the Reptile Book and we would turn the pages until
we identified the snake. He really got good at it. During the entire year
they lived in the house, we never saw a poisonous snake (although the water
moccasin -cottonmouth -does live no this area). Now grandson is an expert
and very appreciative of the non poisonous snake. I wish he would not carry
them around in his pocket though.
