Early spring this year, Aurora Costes ( my elder sister ) nominated Miguelita's garden for the City wide Garden Contest sponsored by the Parks and Recreation.
Just today August 27, Monday, we received a letter that in Ward 2 ( where we live ) the First Prize winner is 19 Dixon Road. That is our home address.
Miguelita went to cloud 9..Who would not?
"It is our prize," she said. I only positioned the various sculptures, mini statues, etc. that accented the garden's view. And I cut the grass. But the bulk of the work was done by her.
And she can only win the first prize once. Next year, she can not join the contest anymore.
But she will receive a stone marker that tells that on this certain year ( this year ) she was the first prize winner. And she will continue tending her garden I am sure of that. She got a very prestigious award for being a Constant Gardener.---#
