Becky... well thanks... you're very kind... bring on the media... paparatzie... et al... if they don't come to get me soon they will have to read about it in the book.. Fill Every Available Space.. no it's not XXX ..but a few allureing photos perhaps..
Seed... Well up over the Antenna... I tied a messenger string to a weight .. and threw it over the bar... to it I'd tie the monofiliment line.. the 150 lb test.. and pull it over... and secure both rnds to either side.. sometimes I'd throw it a second time to loop the line around to secure it and cut down on the swaying back and forth... with the morning glory sail.. the other wall was erected and they were set loose onto it... they climb and twine quite naturally.. the street planter had the dripirrigation line dropped from the roof syported by a bit of aircraft cable to relieve the stress of the hang.. the awaning line was done from the top of a folding ladder on the sidewalk.. and tied across to the street tree infront...
sorry I don't have a picture of the planter it's self.. but I'll get you one this after noon or tomorrow.. well what you have to remember is you usually stand on a square foot or so of space, and very seldom fall right over so it doesn't really matter wher or how high that square foot is.. one's not likely to fall off of it..
well here's a new picture...
