I have been relentlessly trying to communicate to my little valley this same type of intelligence for 4 solid years. My friends think I am nuts for not using my education to become a high paid administrator; I tell them I would be emotionally dead & basically freaked out, using my retirement to go to the nut house.....they say do it anyway, because the money is so "good". Written in the article, "The Most Radical Thing You Can Do" in Orion Magazine Nov-Dec 2008: "The word radical comes from the Latin word for root. Perhaps the most radical thing you can do, in our times, is to start turning over the soil, loosening it up for the crops to settle in, and then stay home to tend them"---written by Rebecca Solnit I say: "Amen".

Last year there were record sales in vegetable seeds I heard. My house included and I think this year will break last year's record. Great gardening blog.

This blog is quite funny and true! Dear George:
