Alright, I'm in!!! Hehe! This sounds like a LOT of fun! I need to dig through seeds today anyway, so I'll find some goodies for this too :)I actually have several things in mind already!

Kathy

I am going to stop lurking and join in on the fun. I am sure I can come up with 10 packages. Thanks Linda

I'd like to play,
Alana

hi Linda! Count me in!! My cats ate my list of trade addys from previous swaps so could you resend yours for me? Please and thanks!

Quick! Name that tune!!!

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?

Somewhere Over the Rainbow! ...*evil witch voice* Fly my pretties! FLY!

Here's another one, see if you know it...

Why are there so many
Songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side
Rainbow's are visions
They're only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide
So we've been told and some chose to
Believe it
But I know they're wrong wait and see

Someday we'll find it
The Rainbow Connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me

Who said that every wish
Would be heard and answered
When wished on the morning star
Somebody thought of that
And someone believed it
And look what it's done so far
What's so amazing
That keeps us star gazing
What so we think we might see

Someday we'll find it
That Rainbow Connection
The lovers the dreamers and me

Have you been half asleep
And have you heard voices
I've heard them calling my name
Are these the sweet sounds that called
The young sailors
I think they're one and the same
I've heard it too many times to ignore it
There's something that I'm supposed to be

Someday we'll find it
The Rainbow Connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me

Rainbow Connection... rather appropriate Dan, but waaay to easy! Try this one:

Long distance information, give me Memphis Tennessee
Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the call
'Cause my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall

Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis Tennessee
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge

Help me, information, more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee

Last time I saw Marie she's waving me good-bye
With hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye
Marie is only six years old, information please
Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee

Memphis Tennessee
Lyrics: Chuck Berry
Music: Chuck Berry

Sung by Jerry Garcia with Mother McCree's Uptown Jug Champions in 1964. He sang a few variations on the Chuck Berry lyrics, which indicate he learnt it from the Jim Kweskin Jug Band version, rather than Chuck Berry's (see for example the third line of the first verse, and the switching of the first two lines of the last two verses):

Long distance information give me Memphis Tennessee
Trying to find the party trying to get in touch with me
You do not have to tell me who it was that made the call
'Cause my uncle took a message and he wrote it on the wall

Operator help me get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd call me from Memphis, Tennessee
Her house is on the south side, high upon the ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge

The last time that I saw her she was waving me good-bye
With hurry home drops on her cheeks that twinkled from her eye
We were pulled apart because her Mom did not agree
Tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee

Long distance information, more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
Marie is only six years' old, information please
Help me get in touch with her in Memphis Tennessee

These are the "official" Chuck Berry lyrics:
Long distance information give me Memphis Tennessee
Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave a number but I know who placed the call
'Cause my uncle took a message and he wrote it on the wall

Help me information get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis, Tennessee
Her house is on the south side, high upon the ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge

Help me information, more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee

Last time I saw Marie she was waving me good-bye
With hurry home drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eye
Marie is only six years' old, information please
Help me get in touch with her in Memphis Tennessee

Hi Linda!

I've been lurking, but missed this round for the color swap. My friend Christy (bonechickchris)is participating. However, her internet was knocked out over a week ago by a storm which is why you haven't heard from her. She was hoping to have her internet back up yesterday, but so far no emails from her & I haven't seen her post on the forums.

I just wanted to get you up to speed so you knew why she hasn't been around.

Becky

okay, I'll be mailing out envelopes on Monday...Nik, go aheadan star your swap

woohoo, here come the seeds!

The bubbles are done and sitting in my mailbox with the flag up..they'll be gone tomorrow! I hope everyone is happy with their seeds....thanks for playing.

Nic...it's your turn..."going through my pink seeds"

YAY! I cant wait, I know there will be an amazing package in the mailbox soon! *dances the happy dance*
~Laura

Hello everyone!

You are the FIRST place I am posting after being back online. First of all, I must apologize for my absense. I lost my internet service for over a week, and could not get online, or check emails. Because of that, I could not get Linda's addy up to send the seeds, although I still have them here all ready! LOL!
I have never had this happen before in a swap, and I feel so guilty. I am SO SORRY that I was unable to send my seeds out in a timely fashion. I have never been unable to not do so before.
Please know that I am very sorry again! I cannot believe how much everything changes when your internet is down for only a week or two! LOL! I was lost in so many ways!
I also wanted to thank Becky for spreading the word of my problems. She is awesome!
I hope everyone enjoys their seeds! So sorry I could not enjoy them with you!
Christy

Christy, if you still want to swap, send them and I'll swap out of my stash!

ok! I have mostly veggies though. If I remember correctly doing the black swap, you like flowers. I do not have many flowers. Is it ok that I send veggies? If you cannot use them, I understand. Or atleast let me know what veggies you do plant.
thanks!

veggies are fine,,,,I have more than enough to swap and I did put in a veggie garden this year!

I got mine...thanks Linda and everyone who participated!

Rebekah (columbine21)

My envie arrived and thanks Linda. I got Green Envy zinnia so I am doing the happy dance. Accidently gave away all my seeds when I grew it before.

Margo

I received my seeds today, too. Thanks to Linda for being a great hostess and thanks to everybody who shared their seeds.

Don

My seeds came yesterday!!! ***Doing the happy dance***

Thanks to Linda for hosting and doing a great job too!

And thanks to everyone else for sharing your seeds!

-Dan

I'm happy everyone was happy so far with their seeds...I was nervous about that..."trying to glue on bitten off nail"..."G"

I got my seeds! Yay! :) Thanks Linda for hosting!

I got my seeds yesterday. Nice job, Linda!
Thanks, Alana
