On June 14, Memphis Mensa hosted their own version of the popular TV show "While You Were Out", aptly renamed "While You Were In". Members converged on Dial Bowen's house, armed with everything needed to put in a water garden. 

Since no Mensa party is complete without a computer, a laptop was furnished complete with landscaping software enabling the crew to see the end result before a hammer was ever lifted or a thumb ever smashed. A large selection of water garden books were also on-hand to help members get creative.

After work was completed, munchies and libations were served on the newly remodeled patio by host and hostess, Dial Bowen and Terry Drye.

Ahhh! Then finished product... a beautiful multi-level water garden complete with a waterfall  to create that  soothing running water sound.
