Wonderful, John. I looked at every one; the biggest "WOW" effect
for me came from the closeups of individual blossoms.
I really like Jim Morris's idea of changing the picture each time
the surfer goes back to home page. (I was also curious to know the
names, but perhaps it's best not to reveal them.....) I do think a
fast slide show would be distracting.

Here is a redesigned home page, with the drop-down menus working.
The links below are all the same design with a variety of center
images, just so you can see how it looks with different images.
This is just the home page format. The format for sub pages will
have a different look more suitable for displaying and navigating
to more types of information. The items in the drop down menus are
place holders and can be changed as we need them. That is actually
the point.
We know what most of our content is going to be for now. We will
never know what all our content is going to be in the future
because it is going to change, and we will have to change and add
links (and take some away) and content as we evolve over the
years. The point is to have a design that is flexible enough to
accommodate what we need to do. We can argue about the specific
link titles, but the structure is there to allow us to move
forward. Obviously the sub links are not active yet. Just roll
over the items ("Growing Irises" etc.) to see the drop downs.
(There is a typo in the Photo Gallery pull down and I will fix
that later)
