June 8: American Gothic Revisited: NOT

Rancho Bernardo, CA

One last paean to Lynn and Don
Davis:   Don planned yesterday
and installed the water system today.     Lynn of course was the
planter.

Don added to my existing lawn sprinkling
system to bring a new circuit online to spray the agapanthus using the sprinkler
heads that will water them for 10 minutes every four days.

To celebrate I wanted them to pose as Grant Wood’s famous couple, American
Gothic
  However, as you can see, kids will be kids (grin) and they
were so joyful about a project well done, that they couldn’t’ contain their
enthusiasm.

Here is the first shot of the garden.

Thank you again Don and Lynn

LOL! Ok, I am with ya...can't be killing nice plants now, even if the watering system does seem a little extravagant. ;) I wonder what they'd charge to run a line off of your system to my tomato garden?! Great composition, and fun, too! :)

For earlier commenters who questioned my need for a water system for such a small area, may I state (for the record) that I want to prevent the death or dying syndrome that can attack healthy plants if the personal responsible (yours truly) for keeping them healthy is traveling.
Guest 08-Jun-2004 20:37
LOL I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
