I haven't been able to answer all e-mails and comments and hope that the word will spread from here.<br /><br />Eleanor, so happy we finally met in person today instead of just on line. Your words meant so much to me and I hope the photos of us turned out.<br /><br />Please check the new link that Jeff installed to check on where I'll be speaking. Note that television and radio shows will not be put on the schedule because the publicist at Workman constantly adds new venues and there can be last minute changes.<br /><br />Your participation in my events has meant the world to me. Thanks for all your words, hugs, and support.<br /><br />I promise to stop for a few hours on Monday to update the blog posting and to share a few more photos with you.<br /><br />If you're in the Chagrin Falls area of Ohio please check with Village Herbs to find out about the evening tea. I'd love to meet you there.<br /><br />All best from the road,<br /><br />SharonSharon Lovejoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04321160956925191137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434499602695302521.post-91968925400297453312010-06-05T08:22:25.868-07:002010-06-05T08:22:25.868-07:00Nice to meet you, Sharon.

The presentation will help to raise money for the Boys and Girls Clubs and afterward there will be a book signing with all monies going to benefit the children. Come join us if you're in the area.<br /><br />Saturday will be a talk, demonstration, and reading– Very informal and fun. <br /><br />I received a couple of e-mails asking if we would see Taliesin East in Spring Green while we're on the road. We took a few hours for ourselves yesterday and did the home and garden tour of the amazing house and gardens.

I cannot wait for it bloom and grow tall so my daughter and I can have home school lessons, story time, and just plain relaxing time in the house this summer and fall. The tallest flowers are 2 feet right now, and I have planted 4 different types of sunflowers for variety. They are just starting to bloom. I will be trying your other cute and thoughtful gardens for children found in "Roots, Shoots,Buckets, and Boots" in the future. Next year I believe we will add the Moon Garden to her garden area! :)ourjewelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14196463313295415423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434499602695302521.post-50000660785716352342010-06-01T08:33:37.360-07:002010-06-01T08:33:37.360-07:00I love everything you share here.
