Hiya, Vic. Thanks for the welcome. I'm living in Park Slope now. After years of apartment living, hostel living, all kinds of no-nature living, I've finally got a back yard! The place was a mess a few weeks ago, but I've finally got the weeds/brush and trash out (well, most of it, anyway), the ground worked up, and an approximate plan. I laid stepping and border stone today....man, my shoulders are sore! I've only got some veggie seeds growing so far...though quite a few plants arriving next week (including all of those shade plants I mentioned above). I'm sure I'll be posting a lot of questions very soon. So look for me! ;)

I had a friend in Astoria a few years ago, and I'd visit quite often. Really nice neighborhood!

Thanks again for the welcome, and wish me luck with this HUGE undertaking!
