Do I or don't I?

Hmmm.....my local newspaper is having a contest for DIY 2008 and one of the categories is "Best Landscaping/Water Garden Project" and I'm considering entering my feeble little pond project. I am certain it won't win because it's not a grand scale project - but I'm thinking, what the heck. I did it all myself (ok - and help from a girlfriend) from digging the hole with a shovel, laying the liner to picking out the plants. I have nothing to loose except for a postage stamp. We'll see - the deadline is Aug 22nd so I have a little time to "ponder" the situation (sorry - couldn't resist that one).

Today happens to our 20th wedding anniversary. We've actually been together 25 years but the elopement (is that a word?) was today, 20 years ago. We got married by the city's marriage commissioner at the foot of the Cape Henry Cross and had 2 witnesses with us (to take pictures to prove to my Mom that it really happened!). Has it been easy? Not all of the time - but no one said it would be. Has it been rewarding? Absolutely. Would I do it again? You bet. I love you honey....
