Wow, thanks.  Those are some eye-openers and no mistake.  I was kind of 
stuck in the "how can I make the most realistic and detailed flowers and 
trees" mode.  That was competing with the "to heck with the flowers and 
trees, maybe I can model some stuff on a table in a room" approach. 
Time to do some serious re-thinking (and now we do have time.)

Thanks again.
