At the community garden that I’m part of, last year, we bought what we called, “an investment hose” it was a durable, good quality hose, more expensive than any other hose we’ve ever bought. It was supposed to last us for years. But for some reason, it’s gone missing. The person that removed our hose removed the sprayer and left it for us.

The person that stole our hose certainly had good taste, because they stole our expensive, good hose!

I’m not sure what to make of this. We’ve never had a hose stolen before. People pick our produce, try to walk out with our tools, someone tried to once plant a tree in the middle of the path. People do weird things in our garden. But the hose being stolen is a first. It’s upsetting, but mostly inconvenient.
