One of my favorite stories of the weekend was J.M. Brown’s piece on Bud Cummings’ secret garden near the harbor. I walked by the garden this morning and Bud was hard at work.

We’ve added Bill Lovejoy’s great photos to the photo blog.

Speaking of gardens, we’re still accepting photos of your garden for our current photo contest. Voting for the best has begun.

Thanks also to freelancer Chloe Lee, who took this video of Friday evening’s protest march to the County Jail:
