Janowski Gardens will not have business as usual this year.
Diane’s mom and dad, Hilde and Bob, are 94 years old and simply are not able to perform the strenuous tasks.

I’m back in my studio painting. Diane is writing and publishing new books.
We’ll keep you posted with progress and changes.

We need a little summer
Right this very minute
Chinese lanterns on the patio
Burgers on the barbecue
Yes, we need a little heat wave
Right this very minute
We haven't seen a single firework
But Fourth of July we're in a hurry!

My mom is the kid in the middle.

There came a day in January 1945 when my grandfather could not take one more minute in (East) Germany. He and Grandma, and their 5 girls walked nearly 500 miles to Hamburg, (West) Germany with the clothes on their backs. They gave up their house, and everything inside for a chance at a better, safer life. The family pulled Grampa in a wagon as he was injured in WW1. They were refugees. One by one, as money allowed, they emigrated to the US.
