Wow, thanks for the box of fun treasures Alicia! And the letter and photos, too.
(My husband loved the salt from Bonneville). I'm so glad you had a nice trip and let us share in your treasures. Thank you.
I loved seeing and hearing about the different things everyone was sending and receiving through this swap. Helps me appreciate more what's right outside my door. I just don't take the time to realize that not everyone has acorns, for instance. It's been a blessing.
Blessings, staci FG# 973

Glad you like the Nature treasures, April and Staci. It was fun gathering all the things.
Staci, glad your husband likes the salt. Morton salt company actually has two plants on the edge of the salt flats where they harvest and clean the salt.

Kris, can you tell me what to expect from the red bud if I plant it? Is it a flower, shrub, or tree?
Will the seeds survive a long winter or should I plant them in the spring? |

Staci, I feel so humbled that you would send some of your treasures to me to make up for one that I didn't receive. I absolutely love your choices. That shell and those acorns are the teeniest, tiniest things I have ever seen. An old wives tale says that a lost feather is a drop of blood from the bird...thank you for sharing. The sandstone and the fossils stone are likewise wonderful, and the history of your columbine leaf is most inspiring, as I believe one God sends His love to us from previous generationns with the plants they once loved. Thank you for sharing that from your great grandmother. I will treasure what you sent, and again thank you so much!

Michelle,
Thanks so much for the wonderful things you sent. I have the quartz and stone on my desk and the pressed wildflower is on my bullentin board. The "weeds" and sage were beautiful.

Claudia, it was my pleasure to send them to you and I'm so happy you are enjoying them. I do so love teeny, tiny things and good old fashioned heirlooms. 
If anyone else didn't hear back from their swap partner or mailed and didn't get anything in return, please email me and I will see about sending you some PA nature beauty (and you won't need to send me anything.)
Blessings, staci FG# 973

Hi Kris,
Thank you for the Nature box....I rec'd it yesterday.......It reminded me of home with all those sea shells, they're different than the ones we have here in Florida, but the same as the ones in NO. CA and Oregon where I moved here from....I loved the little Sand dollar, so cute, and I loved the dried Queen Ann's Lace! I forgot all about that, because we don't have that here either! It was a fun box!
Thank you!

CityChick, thank you so much for your nature package. I really like the info on The Grove and the Hickory Nuts. I had never seen any before. Your Maple "angel wings" are different from the maples we have here. Yours are straighter, ours have an angle like a boomerang.
