    Red-now you will shout at me-the only way to sit on decking is with your eyes shut.

    I`ll get my coat shall I?

    Claire??, don't get it, checked it several times, thought I mis-spelled something. We have a deck attached on the back of the house, with steps on it that lead down to the yard. I usually have my morning coffee there, or glass of wine in the evening, its very nice.
    David, thought the same, but let it go.

    Oh, yea, David, looked up the two fragrant you mentioned, remember seeing them in books, and I wanted them, but the zone is wrong, too risky for my area. Sometime I will chance something if I can position it near the house and in a protected place, then I pray a through the winter. Like I really want a nice wichhazel, but of those I have seen their zone is almost there with some risk, I should look again this year. The one wichhazel that caught my eye was the real red one.

    Don`t worry about it Red-over here there is a rash of decking. In the right place and aged it looks well, but well, the stuff over here is just not to my taste. Ground Force!

    Claire, I should take a pic. of my deck just for you. We used pressure treated wood by the way, because we live on a shaded property, out in the woods, way out, way set back in the woods, where no one can see the deck at all from any where. In fact, you can stand on my deck naked and no one will see you.
    Ha.

    Yes, I knew, I'd get a rise out of the both of you with that. But, it is very private. I don't even close my curtains in the house. (lets see what that brings now)
