Fro and frow, hmmm. You are right, fro is the proper in this setting; but instead of admitting something like that, I shall endeavor to persist and see where I might land. Ah, "frow;" were do you come from? are you the same as, "fro?" "Fro," can be a way hair is worn, or styled, but, "frow," no, no, no. "Fro," means: away; but, "frow," hmmmm, let's see. "Frow," is a variant of the word, "Froe;" and "Froe," has an obsolete meaning of: turned away; a meaning also given to another old word, "froward." (froward not to be confused with forward, though as an adjective, the meaning is practically the same) So while, "to and fro," would mean, "backward and forward." "To and frow," would mean, "backward and turned away." Turned away gives a more liberal definition to the movement allowing a more side to side equivalent. Thus in a more continues and gentile blowing wind, the side to side weaving pattern effect on the flowers would create a more, "to and frow," appearance to the eye of the observer; while if the wind should cease; a, "to and fro," appearance of course: thus the image I am trying to project is the one of a constant wind upon our little friends causing a swaying action intertwined with both backwards and forwards movement. "To and frow." (LOL) Sincerely, Tony �:�{

I'm not even going to make an excuse for, "too."
