I'm sitting here in Nina's kitchen writing on her
computer. I took everyones advice and shipped her
house gift here along with Anita and Craig's wedding
tree. All arrived well.

Anita told me about the tree, which is a small 6" or so trident maple that you've
been raising yourself for 20 or so years. It's a very meaningful gift, and we both
thank you for your generosity.

I succumbed to a nice small
holly, which I will attempt to take back on the plane
in a shopping bag.

On the Arizona end of the honeymoon (in Oct.) we'll be looking for nurseries that
specialize in cacti and succulents. Me, I'm looking for a fat ol' jade plant that
I'd never be able to find out here in the Northeast. Maybe some really neat cacti
too. I understand the prices are much lower out there for such plants. Out here a
large jade plant 2' tall, single trunk 3" or so would be well over $100-150,
probably more. What are prices like out there? Am I going to be disappointed?

We're planning to box up what we buy out there and have that count as one piece of
checked luggage each.


It is truly amazing on how small a place the world
becomes through the internet.
