garden party, sort of.

Well, this is what happens to the whiskey barrell when you don't plant anything good. we think it looks kinda cool at this point.
Black eyed susan knocks out russian sage. kinda reminds me of Rocky Part 4. way too much rain this year.

this is where my butterfly bush was supposed to come back. how sad. we'll try again next year.


wow

Check out the electrical panel on that guy. Pretty nice, huh?

bungalow association

we're sending in our app for the bungalow association this week. i have to research all sorts of fun information before we send it in. i am learning so much. then, we'll get four hundred bucks off our electical panel, pretty cool, huh? Kevin scraped off ugly, nasty ceiling tile in the entranceway today.
This is the most recent outside pic of the house. the stairs used to have nasty carpeting on them. major walking hazard in the winter. we dug out the giant, ugly, nasty bushes last summer and with the shade, the plants are doing okay in the front.
