Pic of the Day--Garden Tour 14

Post by Hank Zumach »

Hi All--Yesterday I came across some forgotten photos that were taken over the years as our garden was being developed. I think it might be interesting to some folks to see a few of the "before and after" shots. So, here are three photos of the general area of our garden that has been in the POTD for the last few days. The first photo is from the first year, 1992, the second photo is from 1994 and the third photo is from 2003. The earlier shots were taken with a film camera and then re-shot with my digital, so the quality is not very good.
