The challenges facing local news organizations are very real. That's why reader support matters more than ever. If you believe independent journalism matters, make a contribution today and help us reach our summer fundraising goal of $25,000 by August 9.
Last weekend, on day seven, my second attempt at raising a crop of Denver dailies took a tumble off the deck. Although the cause seemed lost, I swept up some of the dirt and tossed it back in the pot. And on June 30, lo and behold, a slender seedling — a Denver daisy — popped up.
The five other seeds that were in that packet — handed out free as as a salute to Denver’s 150th birthday this year — have yet to make an appearance. But perhaps there’s a veritable garden preparing to bloom beneath my deck.
Because the Denver daisy, like hope, continues to spring eternal. — Patricia Calhoun
