Section 1: Gardening Quote of the Day:

"The Lord God planted a garden In the first white days of the world, And he
set there an angel warden In a garment of light enfurled.  The kiss of the
sun for pardon, the song of the bird for mirth, One is nearer God's heart
in a garden Than anywhere else on earth." - Dorothy Frances Gurney
(1858-19320
