Judy,
Home sick today, a relative brought a child with a blooming cold to our
passover seder. A spring cold...achoo!
Asphalt is not my favorite( I hate the stuff, prefer to pickaxe it and cart
it out as inappropriate to a garden, concerns about chemical composition,
etc.), but it can be worked around, if absolutely necessary should there be
a dearth of male upperbody strength and beer.
Judy, I'm thinking raised beds and good drainage, with a dug out gravel
gutter on all of the sides of the beds - or a kind of container garden.
Painting asphalt is OK for basketball courts, but I think will do nothing to
cool your space.
Best wishes,
Adam Honigman
