Since I was wearing A in a baby carrier and I walked to the lecture, I wasn't really sure how to get it home. Fortunately one of the other lucky winners was a really nice young woman from the University of Maryland public health garden project. You have to check this project out - they brought in goats to clear out the land for their garden.

A Rain Barrel!
A couple weeks ago I was going through the local paper and came across a notice about a "Garden Workshop" being held the following Saturday at the public works building a couple blocks from my house. Details were scarce, but they did mention they would be giving away 10 free Aquabarrel rain barrels, and I was a little stir-crazy anyway, so I went. It turned out to actually be a pretty good lecture about water-wise landscaping, and - I won a rain barrel! It came with all the necessary fixtures and special tools, so N was able to install it easily, and after just two thunderstorms the barrel was completely full!
