Aug 29 - The Community Garden Had a Banner Year

One last check-in at the community garden down the hill from us. It's always a show, but this year really has been the best in recent memory. (Meaning: since we started following it in 2015.)

Jill, one of the most major volunteers and a true Master Gardener, told me what these outrageously-pink flowers were, and I'm so bad at this, it slipped my memory at once. Perhaps you can enlighten me on our next call.

Tomorrow is my minor operation to drill out my upper jaw to replace the lost tooth implant; so maybe wait that call a few days! Until then:
