It's a terrific issue, and it came together miraculously. My next post will a tribute to our "tractor man", the guy who kept the farm together, my sister's husband, Bob. He passed away on the 9th, and spent the previous 2 months on hospice. Friends pitched in to get the farm through this growing season, making it as seamless as possible.
So when I say that the magazine came together miraculously, I'm not kidding. We can never thank our contributors enough. They sent such good articles on timely herbal information, experiences, and lore. Recipes and remedies abound. Maryanne told me she did the crossword puzzle and the program dropped 2 words. I'm not sure what to do about that, other than make smaller puzzles, perhaps.
We're back to as normal as we get, and my mind is already on the Extra! due on Sept 20.
Now. On to the Table of Contents!
