Thanks everyone. We've put a lot of work and $$$ in to the yard. After living in California, it was great to have a very large yard. I missed being able to grow as many things as I had there (sugar cane, avocados, lemons and limes) the chance to have a big yard was appealing.

 

Yes, it's a money pit, but when things are a bit boring, we go outside for a walk around the house, watch birds at the feeders, or sit out and listen to the wind chimes.

 

Unless it's hurricane season, then we watch the wind chimes blow down the street.

Lovely garden, I can see that it is tended with care and attention.

 

I am not very good at gardening although I have quite a nice garden.

Ok not much garden, just grass mainly, but hey I have 3 kids, and my wife takes care of 3 more.... so that's 6 flower picking, green strawberry picking kids....

We planned to have the garden redone (new pavement and grass with some higher places for plants, use the old tiles for that) but we need a new car first, but if my wife keeps on working like that I guess we'll have the funds next year.... now only for me to get 3 weeks off work.....

That cat is really, really, really big.

 

We'll be adding children's play gear to the yard in the next few years.

He's master over all dogz in the neighbourhood, but there ae 2 cats even bigger around. (They were helped a bit later I guess)

But our cats are very nice to children..... I'm glad with that
