My sister-in-law sent me the link to this book. It was written by an '81 alum at Illinois Wesleyan University (where SIL works) who is a cancer survivor. The book talks about the pollution of IL land and water from the chemicals used on the farmland. I ordered it from my library.

Mine is just a little old fashioned garden where the flowers come together to praise the Lord, and teach all who look upon them to do likewise.

It's kind of scary where chemicals can end up, and what they can end up doing, isn't it?

XOXO, Libbie
