These are from the back yard...
I love this fountain because there isn't standing water for a child or animal to fall into.
My swing gives a nice backdrop to the whole yard.
Randy built me a simple window box that always looks nice with the impatiens.
He also built a house for the birdies! The roof got dented a few years back when a limb fell on it and it's needing another coat of paint. The Christmas wreath has been hanging over the "doorway" for a couple of years. We've just never taken it down.
Ferns are one of my favorites but it's hard to keep enough moisture on them once it turns really hot.
Here are some shots from the front....
The wicker chair was bought with Christmas money from my brother, Terry, back before we had the girls. I can blame my having a concrete goose on my Aunt Elsie & Aunt Bobbie. They got mother started and then I had to have one too. Her outfits were getting a little faded so I got a few more made this spring;
This hosta looks great right now, but soon the hot summer will take it's toll. I plan to eventually move this one to the cabin where we have more shade.
Daylilies, one of my favorite flowers.
They are so "springy."
This morning I found this squirrel in my birdfeeder.
I haven't been able to figure out how to get this picture turned a quarter turn, but I love that I got his face in this one. So just turn your head a little and enjoy!!
