She has grown kids. They will help her if she asks but she does not ask. she just keeps going about her business by herself. Gardening is something I guess she needs to do by herself. She does a good job at it. I will take a picture of her garden when I am out her way and post it here. On the other hand there was an elderly man who lived in Perryville and carried a five gallon bucket all over the garden with him to sit on moving it as he moved. He could not stand any longer. He could move short steps and sit so he gardened. He grew vegetables and some ornamentals and gave lots of food away. He passed last fall. I miss him in his garden. Every time any one drove by his house he was sitting on his bucket and he stopped and raised his hand in a wave and went back to his work. He had a big garden every year without fail.
Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?
