Colors of Spring


So Betsy Gage, who lives nearby and inherited the “job” from another neighbor, every year about now loads this big green bucket located on the South Amherst Town Common with brightly colored flowers (in late summer she may replace them with mums). She doesn’t get paid to do it, and she herself finances the flowers purchased from a very local farm.

Yeah, even the People’s Republic has people who genuinely care (thank God!)

Nice post! I was wondering if it was too early to plant some pansies I got at Atkin's outside. Besty Gage probably knows what she's doing and I see she's putting them out. Well, so will I.

By God she's started a movement!
