Garden follies
By Felder Rushing
This is the week where I usually do my annual Felder Fesses Up, in which I chronicle my previous year’s garden follies and foibles. But it wasn’t so bad after all.
Mostly, in my attempt to reduce garden chores to accommodate my aging old bones, I dug up scattered flower beds and planters, leaving just a handful I can easily manage and still get a good “color echo” vibe. I rogued out a bunch of nandina, pulled piles of Virginia creeper and Asiatic jasmine, and spread a lot of mulch.

Oh, come now. That’s only one out. Patrick Taylor has a whole batting order to face. He claims Trump is out with three strikes. (“Trump Has Not Met Expectations of His Supporters,” Northside Sun 12/12/26). OK, but we’re in only the second inning. I’m more than pleased with Trump’s performance after months and it’s a lot better than I thought it would be. There are inaccuracies coming out of Taylor’s hand and sloppy conflation of fact with fiction. Now Taylor is out of strikes and is beginning to throw only balls. My diagnosis: a debilitating case of TDS.

After a parent dies, children commonly wish they had asked more questions about their family’s history. Anyone who has ever had that wish would find Christine Kuehn’s new book, Family of Spies, more than just interesting.
In her case the questions came late in her father’s life. And, as it turned out, they were not just about her father’s fighting on Okinawa, the Japanese island where, at age 19, he survived a 1945 battle in which 12,000 Americans were killed. All he would say about that was that he was glad he survived.
