Yesterday (Nov 15), I received seeds from "huntsman".

I'm still waiting on a number of envelopes to arrive, so will have to hold off finalizing the swap until those show up. All are from individuals that confirmed their envelopes were mailed.

Thanks.....Heather

That Huntsman is a very fine fella indeed Looking forward to sending him a nice surprise package back (even though he so graciously declined)..gotta have a surprise envelope to open just before Christmas

I received envelopes from "Happylittleacremark" and "poajoan" today. Still waiting on more envelopes to arrive. It's going to be a little while yet, before I can wrap up this swap, so thanks for your patience everyone. Once all the envelopes arrive, then the magic begins. That's where I crack open a nice bottle of wine and stuff the envies with nice surprises Two bottles of wine and who knows what you'll get in that envelope

Glad to hear my seeds finally arrived, and I did not send them by Pony Express :-). Looking forward to getting your surprise package. Joan

Ciao Penny-

Remember me telling you about that pumpkin swap I sent out on the 22nd of October? Good news is it just arrived today, bad news is she already sent out the parcels (making up a parcel for me special). Good news again is that the seeds will go to Need for Seed, so someone will be growing them.

I hope your stuff gets to Heather sooner than this.

I am still waiting on a few envelopes to arrive, but can't hold off any longer, so I've pushed ahead and managed to get a batch of envelopes mailed today. From this forum, I mailed the following envelopes:

* bcbf
* dak
* franzb69
* hardwaterbob
* ontariocanada

I expect these will be end up in the early mail tomorrow (November 22nd). Will continue to post updates as I send more envelopes. It's going to take some time, but will get through them as quickly as I can.

Thanks....Heather

I had some more packed up and ready to mail this morning, but then I opened the front door and said no way....I'm not going out there today. It's minus 32 degrees celcius. Lucky for me I can sometimes work from home if the weather is bad.

We'll try again tomorrow

Could I ask everyone to let me know when your envelope arrives so I can update my records? Thanks so much.....Heather

-32 ºC = -25.6 ºF
I'd turn around and go right back into my house too, Heather, you stay warm, tomato seeds can wait!
