I am deson1947

[deson1947]

I live in Central, SC. My interest is raised and container gardening. I have a one size tennis court backyard. I retired from the US Navy in 1970, at that time I had to work very hard to feed a wife and 6 kids, I now have the time to grow things and have wanted to get started for some time. I also like to take pictures. Plus I love to cook, bake and watch cooking shows on TV. I almost dropped my pea coat when I found this site.

If that tennis court faces south, I'll be drooling all over the pictures you post!

Glad to have you here! Let us know if you need any help!

Now that you are a land lubber...

I trust you will turn-to and produce the most you can with what you have and share your experience with all of those here.

You're a welcome member of our crew... did you serve before the mast? Or were you an 0-ganger?

Looking forward to reading about your progress.. and by the way, pick up that p-coat sailor! It's gear adrift if you dropped it! :}

I'm Fred, if you have chicken questions, I'll sign your pars off for you!

A fellow member of the world's most respected maritime fraternity, that of the Navy Chief Petty Officers... then you sir, are my brother! Welcome to the mess

My rating did not exist when you were active. We'll spare the rest of the message board. We are now but gardeners and students of urban sustainability.

We won't be sending anyone down for the BT-Punch! ;}

Thanks, I am working on a raised garden,witch is taking most of my time. Also had to plant four (4) blueberry bushes in containers, after finishing my wife's honey-do list. I will get more pictures up soon.
