Garden Renovation

This garden area has lived through many changes.  This last august, I poured a concrete pad under the shelter, so I would have a base from which to plan, and not have weeds overgrowing the area which houses the picnic table where I can read the newspapers, and enjoy a coffee or whatever.  So now I am thinking about what this enclosed garden should look like, or better yet, what theme of plants, etc., should I  develop.

The walkway is found stones, and some blue stone given to me a couple of years ago.  So as long as I have a place to store stuff,  eventually, I am able to integrate same into the landscape or structure.

Digging in the dirt is more than an interest in seeing things grow, but is also a serious form of exercise.  Moving stone, gravel, wood chips is all good.  
Back with more thoughts later....Gary
