What’s with her?

A truck, a dog, a house on a hill and an improbable garden, half of which grows on a recycled shuffleboard court in straw bales and containers. Marideth Sisco is a retired journalist, author, folksinger, folklorist and Ozarks storyteller. She is the host of the regional public radio series of audio essays, “These Ozarks Hills,” available on line at www.ksmu.org. She is also a veteran gardener, and can get quite cranky about it at times, even when things are going well. However they’re going, she will practice moderation, patience and creative improvisation – all good for the soul. But she doesn’t have to be nice about it.
