Mr. Andrew's Garden was across the street from our house when we lived in Seattle.
This was in 1959, before the World's Fair and the Space Needle.
We would visit the Garden when we could, and every day was different.
The Chinese would visit on weekends, in the afternoon.

It was a  huge garden and the Andrews were always busy working in it.
Avery and Sarah, Mrs. Andrew's grown children, lived there with them.
Sarah lived above the garage and Avery lived in the garage.
Avery fought in Korea and had a habit.
Cradle Needle was written for him.
Sarah was just wrong.

Michael Patrick Francis, my older brother, would always take the lead in our journeys.
Everything in our selections is a memory of what happened. Do not become confused. The Garden is as deep as your imagination.
We hope you enjoy your visit.
