Fifteen folks showed up to weed, chop, dig and hoe. All went at it with vigor. They just did it all. We are getting up there, with stents in our hearts, diabetes and all that goes with it. Thank you from the bottom (and tops) of our hearts to Bobby Mercier, Amanda Walker, Jason Bailey, Andrew Freeman, Tracey Howerton, Randy Blome, Youvani Ring, Carolyn Fairfax, Victor Cureton, Arnie Morales, Kelsey Johnson, Deborah Kroeker, Dana Seagrove, Kandee Little, Brady Bruckner, the power behind it and to the people who covered for this great gang who worked so very hard for us. Bless every one of you!
