So, Becky wanted backyard tours, huh?

More than happy to oblige!

I decided that, rather than take my pictures from ground level, I’d take them from the second floor . . . there’s really not that much to see, so at least this way, you get a more interesting angle.

First, the picture from my bedroom window, looking to the left. Our deck. The little roofed-over corner of the deck is Chappy’s bathroom. You can just see the fence of in the distance.

Here’s the view to the right. You can see our neighbor’s pool. Some of our shrubs. The fence on the other side of the yard. The view of the icky, icy, slushy snow that fell the other day.

Not particularly exciting, huh?

  Here is our front yard, as viewed from the guest room, to the left. You can see my car in the driveway. You can’t quite see it, but there’s a pink dogwood tree there in the front (kind of between where I was and the car).

It is a hard time of year to take good yard pictures–everything’s kind of monochromatic. (Not that there’s that much color in the yard in the summer, either. Basically, we’ve got grass–if we’re lucky–but not much else).

Now–make sure you go over to Knit and Plenty and vote for the Oscars.

And, just because I thought it was interesting–a look at the greatest Pranks of all time.
