HA ha!! It does, doesn't it!! lol.

Uhhh... that might be a problem because we have trees EVERYWHERE. But the space I have in mind has full sunlight all day, except on cloudy days. LOL!!

The red line is the general vicinity of where Id like to put the garden.

Well, I reckon we'll be building raised beds then.
