This topic has been posted many times here, and I have read most of the
posts, but no one has conclusively stated the answer. What is the street
address of Norm's shop? The consensus is that the shop is in Russel
Morash's back yard.
I'm just curious. They don't allow visitors, and I am not interested in
being a trespasser. I think I know the address, particularly since it
seems that the satellite maps may be limited in zooming on the
particular address.

I *think* I have the address. I'm still researching. It's just a fun
thing to do. No ulterior motives.
Ok, we're holding this on the last Saturday in September, on Norm's front
lawn (the one with the nice patio furniture) to elect committee members and
give him a lovely surprise.
Unless the sub-committee us elected in time and manages to raid his kitchen,
you'll have to bring your own sandwiches.
I propose J Clarke for secretary (chosen purely at random, honest!! but I'm
dying to hear the acceptance speech) and for chairman. Larry & Robotoy.
I'd nominate an auditor based on frequency of contribution to the group, so
possibly Woodie or CheapViagra@Yahoo.con
Other positions to be filled - Treasurer, Vise Chairman, Clamp Chairman, Lord
High Executioner, Spanish Ambassador, Pitcher, Long Stop, Grand Vizier, Cabin
Boy etc - can be decided by a vote. Florida residents excepted.
There will be a raffle. Winner gets to keep Norm for a year as a
conversation-provoking mantle ornament. The contents of the shed will be
distributed by drawing lots.
Now, we need a volunteer to negotiate the Cable deal.
Anyone?

I posted several messages via TeraNews today, but apparently I'm in

Well, if you have the address, do you need to confirm it?
It will be a rather large building with another building - smaller -
which is the garden shed Norm built.
Finally, from what I gather, there is a wildlife area behind the
property, meaning there should be a lot of trees.
And finally, share will ya? Even from a satellite view of several
thousand feet up is the closest we'll ever come to the
shop.

I think he said on his farm (Morash), and the Victory Garden is behind

Thank you.
In case anyone doesn't know it, I split off the Norm's Tools part of

I don't watch the Victory Garden so I no reference other than the
building appears to be the right color.

That's about as close as we're going to get to NYW here in SoCal.
First KCET (Los Angeles) totally dropped NYW programs.
Guess there isn't a big demand for NYW programs in Beverley Hills but
the still carry the This Old House stuff.
KOCE (Orange County) has been in begging mode 24/7 for so long that I
can't remember seeing anything but Lawrence Welk reruns on Saturday
night.
Other than that, they beg.
Wonder how many of us old farts have to die before they return to
actual programs?
Lew
The Victory Garden is no longer done by Morash,
who did have the actual garden at his home which
was next to the New Yankee Workshop.
This was pointed out by Norm on several occasions
in prior years.
The Victory Garden is now another new group of
folks.

For $3.95 one time setup you can get a free account at Teranews. Use the

Let us know how Teranews works for you. I tried it several years ago
after Hughes.net dropped Usenet (because their super-double-secret on-line
survey found that no one used Usenet). I was quite disappointed with
availability and retention on the free service, so, I stupidly signed up
for the pay service thinking it had to be better. It wasn't, that's when I
moved to Supernews. Hopefully Teranews has gotten their act together. If
you have problems, don't send good money after bad -- go find one of the
other Usenet carriers.

On second thought, maybe the area at top left is where the Victory
Gardens is at since there appears to be some beds, etc. But there is no
clear view of Norm's shop and the shed.

hard to tell if this is it with all the trees. There is no clear view of
Norm's shop or the little shed he built either. It doesn't even look
like where the Victory Gardens is done for that matter.
