AND HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 80'S.
TODAY, THE HIGH WAS 85.

THE MYSTERY IS OVER REGARDING THE FLOWER GARDEN ON HIGHWAY 136.
TWO OR THREE PEOPLE KNEW THE ANSWER.
IT IS THE WORK OF JERRY AND BARB  NELSON, WHO
LIVE JUST EAST WHERE WHERE THE PHOTO WAS TAKEN BY ME
SATURDAY.    BARB EMAILED ME AND SAID IT IS NOT THE PLACE WHERE
SOMEONE DIED AND SAYS SEVERAL HAVE ALSO  THOUGHT THAT.
BARB SAYS THERE USED TO BE A WINDMILL THERE WHICH WAS KNOCKED DOWN BY A MOTORIST AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN TO EXPENSIVE TO ERECT IT AGAIN.     JERRY TOOK SOME RAILROAD TIES, FIXED UP THE AREA THAT
SURROUNDED THE WINDMILL AND BARB STARTED PUTTING FLOWERS THERE.   SHE SAID JERRY TAKE CARE OF MOWING AND WATERING AND SHE TAKES CARE OF PLANTING, WEEDING, AND PRUNING.
