Well, it’s ABOUT TIME – thank you, Senator Kerry, for finally engaging the Republican attack machine in your Ohio speech.
Gardener’s Diary/Weekend Recap
I’m almost done replanting the rest of the flower boxes on the porch.
A meander down 6A from Dennis to Peter’s house included a productive stop at the County Farm, where I picked up two nice, bushy (you should forgive the phrase) impatiens. A couple of six packs of fall pansies should finish off the job.
