Gorgeous garden.... to me veggie gardens are just as pretty as anything else you might have done with the space. Your gardens are beautiful and clearly thriving!

Seen the EDS commercial for [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pk7yqlTMvp8]Cat Herding[/url]? It's a classic. :)

thanks all. We've got enough tomatoes, corn, squash and okra to make it to next year. We're able now to give some away. One thing the pictures don't do is produce sound. There are so many bees it sounds like an electrical transformer. Our second corn field had no ear worms at all thanks to them. My 9 year old nephew wont go near the garden. He has a terror of bees. There is a little 9 year old girl who helps us and she goes barefoot and is fearless. We've managed to give her enough of something each day to take home enough for her family of 6. it's amazing how helpful she is. We don't have kids but we are enjoying the neighbor's. She is pestering me to teach her how to read charts and pilot our boat. This is a wonderful pastime for a grounded sailor.

Yeah, you couldn't have said it much better. I'm in a new house away from my last super garden just trying to get something going here. Problem is I have the space but it wouldn't be prudent. :cry: :twisted: :lol: :cry:
