nctom, gosh, thanks for noticing that I was even gone. Hate to admit it but I was getting ZERO done in the yard preparing for my upcoming season and yet I was addicted to the computer-staying on it for hours--sorta arm-chair gardening. Decided to go cold-turkey so I could build more raised beds, churn up cover crop, plant seeds, etc.--only caught your thread because I weakened on my self-imposed ban (it is like trying to stay on a diet) and at first just looked at gallery photos for inspiration and then did a quick look at topics and caught your thread. Anyway, thanks for the note--I am actually physically working in my house and yard rather than taxing my poor brain in front of the computer. Hope you are having a successful crop and best wishes.
