Flowers, Indy, The Voice!

Today is Water a Flower Day. Do you really need me to describe it? To tell you what this day is all about? What I feel I should say is…If you do not have at least one flower to water today, go out and get one! They sure do brighten up any setting…The Hendersonville Garden Jubilee is running thru 4PM tomorrow…Prices seem to be generally better than in past years…come on down and we can have lunch!

I will do my best to review this comment and add it as soon as possible. Sorry, but if it is mean, crude, disgusting or irrelevant I can't post it. Remember we are supposed to be celebrating not dragging people down.
