Ms. Shirley's Flowers to Foster
This morning my friend Jessie called me. She said "They're clearing Shirley's lot today to build her new house and we need to go dig up her bulbs and flowers before they go to ruin." So that is what we did. Ms. Shirley met us at the site and helped up dig her bulbs that were to be saved. Jeff, a construction volunteer, was in the background with his chainsaw cutting up a tree that had to be removed from the lot. Ms. Shirley asked him to leave some of the wood on site because she is going to make bbq at least once a week for the crews that are building her house. She is so happy! We brought the flowers back to our places of residence where they are now planted. Once Shirley's new house is built, we'll dig up the plants that she wants back, and replant them at her new house.
