Potential garden site, to right of French doors along the side of the shop, beds far enough from wall I can keep the grass mowed. The old cinderblock steps will be covered up (don't think I can remove them). The ground starts to slope a little beyond where the initial 4 beds will be sited; however, if I add beds, I have a rock pile with some interesting pieces, I have 20 years experience dry laying rock, and I can envision some sort of a terraced arrangement with rock walls:

The small pieces of slate (messy!) will be replaced with some huge slabs I have at the old house - they will make a small 'patio' & nice exit area from the shop. The shop is where my garden tools & supplies will be stored. There is also a VERY convenient half bath in the shop, plus a large double commercial sink for cleaning things up (with hot water!).

A mud room and vegetable washing station! (And the view...envious!!) Looks like your neighbor has a high tunnel.

(Now, off to garden!)
