  Have a seat on this lovely bench that was whittled especially for me by Ben Dover.Then go visit him and his lovely wife Ilene Dover. You will find that they have helpful HTML tips , free graphics (their "buttons" are the best I have ever seen), and you can even leave a note on their fridge. Oh, and be prepared to laugh till your sides ache! ALERT!! "Ben and Irene" have moved their web site from the old Geocities location and I have lost track of them. If anyone knows where they are these days, please let me know!

So you are asking.... "What in the world does Kudzu have to do with friends?"

Well, here in the south we have a ground-cover vine that grows so fast that it is told that if you sit under it at night it will cover you over by morning. As my number of web friends began to multiply, it reminded me of our "beloved" kudzu.
