Good Wednesday to you all.  Not much going on in the gardens.  The city farm market did open yesterday for the season.  Only two days a week but we always enjoy it.  We were surprised to see the number of venders there--nearly as many as the height of the season last year.  And a couple of new ones--one who does his own maple syrup and another who makes his own cheeses.  We will be visiting each frequently.  I did pick up a purple basil and a lemon basil which are both in the gardens now.

This fully illustrates why I say that one of the biggest factors keeping medical prices high, and forcing them higher, is the costs of the health insurance industry.
