outside in the garden

Friday, December 28, 2001

 

This is probably the worst time of year. Everything outside looks barren and brown. There is no snow and the backyard does not have an elegant structure to it.

Yesterday I purchased a wall calendar at the Willimantic Food Co-op that shows scenes of Japanese gardens in the U.S. -- 3 or 4 of them on the west coast out of reach. But one is in Brooklyn NY and I would love to go there and see it.

A well structured garden looks enticing at any time of year because good bones, so to speak, make all the difference.
