I see I selected the wrong photo. The one posted shows her in summer with her umbrella hat as well as her very hot teddy under her clothes! She is very feminine!

Cindy - I really doubt the red plastic mulch is all that it's cracked up to be. We'll use what remains on the roll but when it's done I'm sure we'll revert to the greenhouse weed fabric that we really love using.

I'll find some photos of the copper work that Jack did to create the "tomato room" portion of the vegetable garden. We did it to keep the crows out of it. They'd drop in each day to just poke at the best of the tomatoes - the ones we had planned to eat! The nerve of them! So, the copper is all covered with black bird mesh and it works.

I'll also find a photo of the copper, white mesh covered tables, which make the tomato picking very easy.

Here's a photo that shows the tomato room, including (at the right) the mesh covered copper framed "door".
