Terri - Isn't that the truth? When you *think* it might be done, you find a million more things to do! Or, it's taken you so long to get "done" that you feel the need to change it all over again! My yard has been a work in progress for 5 years and this year would have been the final year in the front yard, but winter killed a LOT in the front (and back) and so, while I'm not at square one, I'm having to rethink & redo a lot! So it'll never get done!!

Mike - Earlier this year, I was faced with the prospect of having to move. And not just down the street, but to another state almost 1000 miles away (from Denver to Dallas). And I was sooooooooooooooooooo dreading that concept that I pretty much gave up on gardening this year. I knew that no one would want to take care of a tangled mess of a yard that I have and so had almost resigned myself to letting everything die and replacing it with grass (how BORING!!). The move didn't happen, thank goodness, but I lost a lot of valuable time (my gardening window is SOOOOOOO short here in CO and this year it's even shorter! Snow was spotted in the mountains already, so winter's coming.. my grow year has been about 3 months this year Sad ). Next year I'm hoping to get my garden back in order and I'll take heart on seeing your beautiful scaping! *sigh*...
