Yardwork
 
In a garden, or any other mimicry of nature, there must be at least one place to go. That place must entice, and beckon one to go.

That place thus forces the observer to enter into, rather than observe, the intended effect.

Even a great hawk of the sea, or a simple man named Paul, understands this.

Men of many words usually have so little to say.

Just as I think I have the upper hand, some guy comes along and makes me feel like a pothead doper on crack or what not.

This is about manscaping, right?

What color is the sky in the garden in your world?
I'm thinking a bowl of decadent chocolate ice cream sounds good about now.

Progressive realization.....

A good thing to hire out.

Yardwork at my home is at a new all-time low this year.

In other news, my blackberry crop is booming.

You are making a garden in your mind. Keep weeding. You haven't reached the intended effect.

Say, can I have some of your purple berries?
Yes, I've been eating them for six or seven weeks now
Haven't got sick once
Probably keep us both alive...

I'm just about done with my wood splitting......hay, it's in the yard and I'm bustin' my ass..... it's yard work. Them gawd damn round weigh up to 250-300 pounds(WAG).
It's a young mans job and I ain't.....slow & semi-steady......I haven't hurt myself yet.
If I can get my chain saw working, I'll be finished before August.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1466692085.jpg

haha.

reminds me of a nugget my friends mom dropped on me:

if you shake a jar full of pennies, it makes more noise than a jar full of dollar bills.

LOL - it's all good, buddy, just yanking your chain! SmileWavy

I was born in South Haven, went back for a visit last year for the first time since I was maybe two years old. That's a nice part of the country, really enjoy it.

Let's see a picture of your yard (or garden?)

Amail 06-23-2016 08:36 AM

BTW, I'm jealous of your access to water. Here's my delightful bare batch - doesn't entice much.

This is a Vash type thread, hence the Vashism responses.

I happen to agree that a garden must invoke a zen-like response when visited. One way or another, I'm having a damn zen-like response in a damn garden!
