I figure that I still have seeds to replace anything that doesn't germinate, but it's the time factor that I don't have in great store. Vic is a real gem and he is a godsend for us middle-aged single gals.

Your pergola is going to add so much to your living space and be a great addition to your house.<br /><br />Now about you having your garden all in . . . oh, if only mine were at that state. Besides the frequent rains, my soil is still so cold I'm fearful for any little seeds buried in it.<br /><br />I'm with Jenn in wanting a Lithuanian lawn guy at my house, too. We got our lawn mowed and all things scraggly weed whipped a week ago and now it looks like it needs it again.

He sounds like a keeper (glad for his young wife & soon to be child). Please keep the snakes off the vines once they start growing.

I'd be the same, wanting more shade and saving money on lumber lol...but you're right, you can make a nice top for it if you want less sunshine. Everything looks so nice in your garden!
