i'm just jealous.

my last back yard (in the words of rodney dangerfield):

"it looks like my tree vomited."

My backyard is so small, that if I stand in my back door, I can hit my neighbor's house with a yo-yo.

Small yard but just finished new deck!

In Johnny's garden
As the swift bird
Flies over the grasses
Dipping now and then
To take his breakfast
Thus I come and go
And I travel
And I can watch that bird
And unravel

That and more.
Simple victories, a Sunflower outside my shop, picture taken today. Why bother?

There to give us peace
In quiet hours

JP hang in there. That's a pretty big project for somebody who's been through what you have recently. It's great you're out there working through it.

Nice!! Looks good.

Those pics look great - makes me want to cut out from work early and smell some freshly mown grass.

Only way to get a lawn that nice where I live is to use artificial :(

Yard looks great, CB. Out here, we have "desert landscaping." That translates to "rocks."

Crow. That's your yard? And you DIY the work? Wow.

Yes. Last pic is what I started with. In my eyes, the current pics are what I call the 'bones' of the project. The project itself being in late adolescence in garden years. Next phase is doing what I call 'fruit work', i.e., flowers and other small ornamentals that require intense tending.

Need to figure out a way to eradicate deer, though, which is a problem around here.

And thank you, vash. I appreciate it, coming from you.

Monet once said were it not for flowers, I would not paint. Here is a recent effort in paint. These are Nan-King cherry blossoms:

When you get to my age, hanging is the only thing I'm good at.
I'll take a pic when it quits raining.......the good news is the rain gives me a good excuse to sit on my ass.......I gots a hell of a wood pile....more than one, in fact.

Outstanding on all fronts.
