It is so important to focus on the human side of gardening. It is the personal, emotional stories that give the garden its light and life. You have a wonderful ability of sharing these stories Sharon.
I agree--what a heartwarming story, so filled with love, yet still gave us a chuckle with your cousin being 'bossed around by an eight-year-old." Love it!
Edit: Our hillside is covered with those cedars, and I will think about the Native American story now when I go for my hikes between them. Thanks for the history!
Hi KY,
Thank you for your words. Hard to write about memories without a few tears, but I always try to find a smile in there somewhere. That bossy demeanor served me well when I taught, though, had to have something since I wasn't big enough to boss them around with my size!
Glad you liked the story, and thank you for writing. I always enjoy hearing from you.
Sharon
