Loss of a wonderful gardener


Upheaval in your garden is painful, even if you do invite the bulldozers in.

But what would it feel like if we *didn't* invite the machines invading into
our garden?  That's what's bothering me right now, an uninvited invasion of
a beautiful, healthy garden space.

   are letters to the editor of the Winnipeg Free Press about the situation.

The bulldozers that threatened in 1993 -- recently pounced.

There are two sides in this story, and I found out about this wonderful
gardener's loss and pain this morning at
http://www.suite101.com/articles/article.cfm/11040. I tried, but I just
can't keep silent.

Carol Wallace's comment was, "I decided to do the one thing I know how to
do - write about it and call it to public attention."

That is what I, too had to do...write about it.  How blind can some people
be?
