      Please realize that all of these photos were taken at what is undeniably the least attractive time in the garden, that dormant, debris-strewn period just before spring's eruption of new growth and renewal. I understand that the improvements I hope to show in this space over the next few months will result a great deal from the natural progression of the season. Nonetheless I will try very hard to assist with my own efforts that process of simultaneous restoration and renovation.
