So often community gardens are an uphill battle, but I think you will win, Cayuga! Would it be possible to get an article (and photo) in the local...
Congratulations to your son and to you! He must be brilliant (but how else, considering the gene pool!) Enjoy the celebrations. It's raining...
So many churches have Easter Lilies on the altar, and on Monday they are tossed out. I confess that I go "dumpster diving" to retrieve the lilies...
