Ashley's Award

Ashley gets Outstanding Volunteer Award for all of her hard work in the garden. Mrs. Wright's 3rd Grade class performed a dance to "Hello Seattle" for her since that is where she lives. And yes, it was silly hat day at Diggs-Latham.

Zen Garden

Looking for a place for our zen garden. Nick and I marked a spot.

Of couse Ashley moved it and changed the shape when she came back to town. Oh well, we tried.

THANKS, VULCAN!!!!!

Thanks to Steve Jones and the wonderful folks at Vulcan for their generous donation! They have donated 45 tons of pea gravel, 45 tons of sand and 45 tons of boulders. YOU ROCK!! (HAHA) Now if we can just get it all here and have people to help move it around!

Thanks Walt, but we need several hundred more bags...

Good thing VULCAN MATERIALS has donated 45 tons of pea gravel!

Is This Enough Wood, Boss?

This is the wood that will become a fence for our garden. Dale is passing on this donation of palettes from Blue Rhino. Wayne, Laurie, Martin and I pulled them apart and pulled out the nails. Now Dale will run them through the planer and apply the Salem Woodworking magic to it. This will eventually attach to the Moon Gate. Ashley supervises from Washington.

Mystery of the Poker Chips

Laura Armstrong and the College students from Salem Bible College found thse poker chips while raking through the garden. Just how do you think they got there?
