Have y'all noticed how delightful we have become? Maybe it is because we are all reveling in the lovely, cooler weather. Another gardening season is coming to a close, and even though we have been (variously) beset by floods, heat, cold, locusts, drought, and sandstorms, we have survived. And a gardener who survives is ready to plan for the next round. Sort of like boxers, I guess. We may be knocked down, we may even be bloody, but unless we get that final, absolute count-of-ten, we get back on our feet to meet the bell. I have been reading over a lot of posts from y'all, and there is a definite feeling of euphoria and hopefulness. We have weathered our storms and seem to be the better for them. Congratulations to all at the Global Garden. I think we are really nice people, don't you? Mapat
