People are asking me more and more often how is the backyard coming along. Well nothing has really happened yet. A couple of weeks ago in Sunset Magazine I saw a design for a backyard vegetable garden / entertainment area which looked pretty darn fantastic. I like almost everything about it. The only modification I would make is a lot more raised beds for veggies. I gave the magaizne to Matt the designer and he's working on an adaptation that could work here. He's bringing a rough drawing this week....

Here's a cantaoupe from the driveway yesterday. I let it go maybe a day or two too long but it was delicious anyway.
