well the truth is that last hanging basket is about 1/4 inch low....

seriously though its a very nice home .

later chrsi

What time do we come over ???

Have the beer ready ! 

Looks EXCELLENT !

Dave...

Great looking yard there Brian.

I second Dave_in_CT's motion that we have a forum beer bash at your place. Besides that pool would like great filled with jello chocolate pie filling. Image Paula and Sherri mud wrestling in there.

Thanks everyone!!!  Your comments make it all worth while!!!

"Image Paula and Sherri mud wrestling in there."  

I just did...I will empty the pool and it will be "ready" by the weekend!

I WAS going to say how incredibly beautiful your yard looked with the lights and flowers....and how park-like it looked in those daytime shots....but that was before you chimed in with Highwind on the pudding/jello pool ....NOW....well, it looks ok...kind of so-so if you ask me.... 

As for Mr. Full of Hot Air

Think a lobotomy would help him Sherri?  I'll bring the high powered magnifying lens to try and locate his brain if you want to bring the power tools.  And just to prove what a compassionate woman I really am, so he doesn't have to go through his micro-surgery without any pain-dulling anesthesia, I'll bring the rubbing alcohol that he can down beforehand. 

Paula

Paula,

No need for that lobotomy. ...no brain up there. I'm waiting for the medical profession to perfect a transplant so I can see what it is like to have one, although I suspect it will result in confusion as it conflicts with the lower thought processing centre, which is what I do all my thinking with.

Don't mind her Brian. Just get the pool ready. What is the diameter and depth? I get a discount on pie filling by the ton.

Paula and Sherri,

In case you have health concerns about wrestling in pie filling, I'll order the fat-free sugar-free variety.

Yes I was thinking the same thing, that it was a positively delicatable yard, and then I get put into a swimming pool with jello/pudding and become one of the delictable entertainment features of the yard.  Sigh... oh what it is to be a female in a primarily a mans world.

I seeing guys with palm fronds, bunches of sweet juicy berries, brooms, mops, vacuums, feather dusters, all while Paula and I sit back being fanned and fed those sweet berries by our adoring fans, poking fun at the lowly guys that are stuck cleaning every single blade of grass, every flower petal...well I guess you all get the picture.  Ahhhhhhhh, feels nice to daydream about some relaxation.

Sherri

Ahh Sherri....when you dream, you dream well....

However, you forgot to mention the part where the guys are only wearing smiles.....all expect Highwind, of course...he's dressed in a space suit, complete with helmet and boots....ok....back to the dream....

If a girls gotta dream - she may as well go for something that will happen when he!! freezes over.

Space suit - I'll go along with that!

Sherri

Chocolate pudding aside.... Do you find that all the lighting attracts a lot of insects at night? or is that not a problem in your neck of the woods? Very attractive back yard! Seems to offer privacy even in a suburban environment. Are the cone shaped lights at the edge of the patio floor electric, or flame from fuel? I don't think I have seen that style light before.
