    Being very into traditional Japanese culture I did large Zen rock gardens in my front lawn area for the neighborhood to enjoy. Yup, the neighborhood cats really loved it too and I finally had to give it up.

    My parents were zen buddhist and my serene childhood memories are standing and looking at the heavy weight slowly creating a spiral at our zen center. 40 years on, I have decided to create a desk sand garden with rocks and sand.
