Rock Garden, South Loop, April 1999This photo, taken with a $200 35mm and scanned into the computer in 1999, shows a giant's-eye-view of the southern loop in late April, 1999, the first spring after the first part of our railroad was installed. I TOLD you last winter there were plants in the ground. The hostas grew like a house-afire while I was watering them with overflow from the pond. Now that the pond has stabilized, I'm not doing that any more and they've stabilized somewhat. [Note: Revisiting this photo in 2006, I can't believe that the railroad was ever this bare of plant life - now it's all I can do to keep my plants from fighting each other to the death (and there have been some casualties). Back to my 1999 comments. . . .-Paul] A tunnel was subsequently installed where you can see those cement blocks. I've put it up and taken it down and put it up a different way trying to get the right look without ruining the profile of the flower beds.
