Today ’s photos are from Marc Goodman in North Beach , Maryland . Marc says,“I’ve been in this house since 1995 . It faces the Chesapeake Bay . North Beach is a charming little Bayside Town of about 2000 citizenry , about 3 miles from Washington , D.C. – most of the lots , include mine , are only 25 feet wide because they were originally weekend beach places , in which resident construct do - it - yourself houses from kit ordered through Sears Roebuck catalog – so its like urban gardening in the area .
I go here to do more soaring but once I had the house , became focussed on gardening alternatively . That happened because the small backyard had the founding for an old shed in it that was ugly . I ab initio thought it was a septic tank that would be hard to remove . So I had the idea to cover it up with a fountain , broadly speaking breathe in by the Court of the Sultana at the Alhambra Palace in Grenada , Spain . ( I am captivate with all things Spanish . ) Once I put the spring in – one of the few things in aliveness that one dreams of and then when it find it is better than dreamed of – I could n’t stop until the garden looked like it does in the picture . ”
smashing Book of Job , Marc ! Yes , once you fix up one affair , it all just begins to snowball , yes ? But it was all deserving it !
