This is my first year of having a “serious” garden, and I tried to plant things I knew we would eat. Aromatics are wonderful too — rosemary, basil, etc. — and anyone who’s seen a squash flower knows they’re spectacular.

This is getting so stupid. Just a couple of days ago I learned that here in MI if you put up an inflatable or temporary pool more than 2’ deep you have to have a permit. And an electrical inspection! How crazy is that??? We’re nagged to death as parents about sedentary kids who eat too much junk food, are on the computer too much and spend too much time in front of the TV, but we put up a pool and they throw up red tape roadblocks.

All of Michigan? or just certain jurisdictions?

Whoa!!!! Do you have a link to that?!? We have one in our backyard right now! Four feet. We put it up every year.
