Here are photos from our May 11, 2002 Spring Project at Hustead House, a group home for AIDS patients. This project was to prune shrubs and plant flowers to spruce up the yard in keeping with the surrounding homes in the neighborhood. The unexpected rain that fell all day was good for the plants, but forced us to design creative rain-wear!
