Makes the effort worth it.....

Was moving a trash can to the curb while two neighbors were chatting across the street. One of the ladies called my name then told me they were talking about me. I kindly asked why. She told me they were just talking about the beauty of our home and yard. The second lady added that if our neighborhood had a yard of the month contest we would win every month. With a blushing wide grin I thanked the ladies. Nice way to end the day.

Indeed that would make anyone's day A few pictures of your garden posted here are in order I guess .

I will yet our yard cannot at all compare with you real gardeners. We have 99% perineal, evergreen gardens that best befits low maintenance. We are proud to say it is almost always neat and tidy. Overcast today so will have to wait for a sunny day.

I'd love to see some pictures as well Big Lou. I know the back yard and pond is beautiful, I'd love to see pictures of the front.

It's lovely to get a compliment like that it makes our hard work as gardeners all the more worthwhile.

That's very sweet I'm sure your garden looks gorgeous, Big Lou I'd love to see it!

Pics in due course. Some plants new so they are smaller with less of an impact. I'm anal so little things bother me more than they should. The hydrangea bed will be put in very soon so I promise photos of everything.

Nice! It is the kind of thing that would certainly make me happy for at least the rest of the year.
