I have been a gardener for many years. My major project recently has been to create more compost. My dirt is mostly clay so I have been working on converting all these leaves and household leavings into compost to lighten my soil. It is mostly clay.
Your photos are great. My husband was stationed at Ft. Leavenworth years ago so I am somewhat familiar, but back then I only used annuals as we moved frequently.
well, i tried to up load the photo (will figure it out yet) I have that i took of my husband last summer in the exact same spot. Whe i saw your picture i was like wow thats Crown point and I was jsut there. Didyou go to the falls in the area?
