    I would prefer to group my plants in the Green Patch as opposed to just having them in rows. There doesn't seem to be a way to do that since when I move a plant, it cannot be put where I want it other than the specified row/column. Why???

    You do not have to add me as a friend to see the photo albums. They are set to public. Just go to the discussion boards on the Facebook addition and look for the links. I keep them near the top so everyone can have a look.

    Honestly, I rarely use facebook because I can't seem to find the time, but this looks too fun to miss out on and it's for a wonderful cause. I'm going to check it out right now. Who knows, maybe I'll even beat my teenage daughter to finding a cool application. :)

    Hi, Healther! Pleased to meet you. Thank you for your kind words about my cartoons. Hope you'll stop back often as I am on an updating binge. I've joined your FC and given you five.
