My name is James not John, but other than that it was a good job of reporting. There were pictures, which were rather dark so I didn't scan them. Anyway I have many pictures on various forums at this site. Durgan.
Nothing wrong with a little recognition for a job well done. Any chance you could post some pictures of the actual garden?
Gordo - I had moved this to the Conversations and Chat forum, though it was originally posted in the Photography and Art forum - where Durgan has posted quite a few pics of his garden!
Now you are bound to be receiving invitations for inclusion in garden tours. It would be fun to see your "pie-shaped" garden in an aerial view someday.
Funny you should mention that. I will be going up probably this month if all goes well, and will take a few pictures. Actually the pie shape is not all that obvious. The yard is about 0.4 of an acre and could be describes more as a hexagon shape. My fence-line connects with seven neighboring properties, and one line is only about 20 feet. I have received an invitation for the garden tour, and agreed. I am a little concerned about the tour being about the 25 of June, which I consider too early in Zone 5, but the contact mentioned that the vegetable garden alone would be of sufficient interest.
