History of a Garden Railroad

By Bill Thomas

In April 2005, Liam (age 5) is helping me set boundary stones. 

I was fortunate to have Ron Johnson as a friend and neighbor.  He freely loaned me his Kubota front-end loader to move dirt to the railroad area.  I was careful to keep dirt away from the base of my big hickory tree.  The depressed area around the tree is now covered with Vinca vines.

It’s been my pleasure over our 16 years here in Madisonville to share my backyard with friends, family, neighbors, and many others.  – Bill
