I know I promised a real life "example" complete with pictures and a step by step story to explain it all, but I am afraid I am going to have to postpone that project a little while. Real life intrudes...
I did manage to get moved, despite the best efforts of the moving company I hired to break everything of value in my life (mostly the electronic stuff like my 300 gig external hard drive, 37" television and my microwave!). We are officially moved in but still unpacking. See, this house has a much bigger yard, but a much smaller house so it doesn't all fit!
And the area I was certain I could use as the main garden area is currently inaccessible by a portion of the main yard fence which I was certain could be gated. Only to have my new landlord decide he liked everything just the way it is thank you very much.
Now for the good news. I found existing PVP piping laid all around the exterior of the main yard with little drips lines at all the major plants. I guess the previous tenant really liked large flowering bushes so I have to remove some of these plants to get what I want in, but I don't think that should be a problem.
Of course, there is the other little element of real life intruding... work. I work at home, which means most of the time, I get to set my own hours, take things in whatever order I want or think makes sense. Occasionally, a client will come along who wants something now. Right now. Oh, and by the way, we need these 30 hours of work done in three days. Yeah, right.
Well, that's what pays the bills, so I drop everything (like unpacking, grocery shopping, setting up my surround sound) and get to work on a "30 hour" project that turns into something more like 130 hours. Seems the customer vastly underestimated what they wanted done, until they heard what was possible. Again, oh well, customer is always right. Right?
So, sorry for the delay's, but like I said, real life. Sometimes it's a bitch. More as soon as I can.
