Shadow Shot Sunday...Before...after...

Quick, before it disappears...the sun...!

You can never have enough yard ornaments...right...
however this is going to be a prop for a photographer
friend, who is doing a shoot here next week...
I may have to get me one of these!!!

These are the before shots before I started
some landscaping projects...

AFTER...
I had an old brick sidewalk I was wanting to remove,
and 'tis the season to start the projects
and boy are we anxious to get going on them.

I also pick up bricks whenever I see them set out for the trash
or anything else for that fact...

This sweet lil' fountain has been in storage for years,
knowing that it would have a special place somewhere...

The digging for the planting is no easy chore,
as this has been a driveway for years, with six
inches of gravel to hack through, I have to use a pick
to get below it.

But next comes the mulch to help with the weeding
and give it a finished curb appeal...

It's slowly getting there...now for a trip to my local
willow patch...my next project is to make
shutters for the doors and corbels for the arbor
out of twigs...a perfect setting for my secret garden
hideaway...just wait till you see what else is in the making...
heehee...!


...as another day in the life at the micro-farm begins
and a fledgling rooster crows...
a time to reflect on those who have paid
the ultimate price for our freedom and our ultimate goal
PEACE ON EARTH
this Memorial Day weekend...!

Check us out...Hey Harriet...
