And just a follow-up, because I could NOT resist! [IMG]
I go by "sun time." Our neighbors in town were amazed that I could look at the sky and tell approximately what time it was. Watches don't last...
Sjoerd, I hope this Google Earth overview is of interest. We have 9.44 acres with 1/2[ATTACH] acre of back and front lawn, an acre of barn lot, an...

Sjoerd, we have seven raised beds, and a fairly large "unraised" garden for larger crops like tomatoes, potatoes, beans, etc. I still have quite a...
