Stormy skies and patchy precipitation (good friends of planting, actually) didn't keep the Shady Characters from once again reporting for duty.   Members gathered around the Peace Fountain in downtown Columbia with trowels in hand.   Friend of SCGC, Tom Harmon, suggested plant choices and locations and within the hour 160 bulbs had been tucked in for their long winter's nap.   Patience is now the only requirement for the beauty the Courthouse and downtown visitors will enjoy with spring's arrival.   Thanks to the organizers of this pay-it-forward event - now, to lunch!

Floating Into Fall

October 16, 2007
To quote SCGC member Dawn Moore quoting Baby Bear, the day was "JUST RIGHT". Not too hot, not too cold; a calm and beautiful day on the Duck. Launching from the county jail ramp, the Characters ended their float at Chickasaw Trace Park, where they enjoyed the lunch prepared for them by Edward and Ruth Moore and served by Dawn. She also provided the Deep Root, which was the lyrics to "Happy Ever After Is In Your Eyes" by Ben Harper.
