Visits of the Dragonflies 
It will all depend on how you view certain things that happen, here are the facts, you can decide.
The weekend before Thanksgiving, Sue Rothman and I were in the parking lot at the garden after having met with one the installers helping with the pavers. On the trunk of my car was a pad that the installer had used to sketch a layout of bricks and a catalog from the paver supplier, one of our patrons, Anchor Concrete Products. While Sue and I stood there, a dragonfly landed on the sketch.
I said to Sue "If John Edwards was here, he'd tell me we've received a message".
Sue replied that he isn't the only one that would think so.
"Well, given we are in the middle of a park out in nature, not unexpected that there might be a dragonfly" I answer.
Sue looks at me and says, "With all of the nature out here in the park, why would the dragonfly land on a pad on the top of a car trunk in the middle of a parking lot?"

Serveral days later I am with Bruce Jones in the parking discussing plans when two women and a young boy come up to us. One of the women had just lost her son and had driven to the garden with her friend after having learned of it on the web. While we are giving her information about the candle lighting, a dragonfly lands on the right side of my jacket. I motion to Bruce to look at my coat, but when I tried to reach into my jacket for my camera, the dragonfly departed.

The day after Thanksgiving, Bruce, Sue, myself and Mark and Colleen Buss with their two sons are working in the garden digging the footing for the border walls. While I'm standing there with Colleen, who is very much a dragon fly person, and mentioning the first two occasions, sure enough two more dragonflies
.
