I hope someone offers to host a western or Pacific squalorfest some day. It has been a subject of conversation at the last several squalorfests. Wouldn't that be fun! Sorry you can't come to beautiful Florida though, Creative.

I've got disappointing news.
One of Diane's employers is changing the amount of take-home pay this year, and she can't afford to come to mini-Squalorfest. If she can't afford it, neither can I.
The news has gutted me, but that's the way it goes sometimes. I hope to see you all later.

Oh no, how sad! You'll both be missed! Good Luck with the changing work situation, & I hope things get to looking up for the both of you.

Sidestep I would love to join you and the others but unfortunately there are a lot of others looking to escape to the sunny south. I checked and unfortunately there are no cheap flights I could find. It seems the best I can do is go to a garden show that holds the promise of spring. And that isn't till Mar. At least if I get to go I'll have good company and its something I really enjoy. I'm sorry that Celeste and Diane won't be able to make it. I'm sure that is disappointing for them. It's always fun seeing old friends and meeting new ones. It is wonderful of you to host this Step and I'm sure it is much appreciated by the ones who get to go. I know how much I enjoyed and appreciated it when Charis hosted Squalorfest last year. I hope everyone has a wonderful time.
