You've done a LOT of work in the ten years you've had the house. I love the decks, walks, pond, stone work and garden art as well as how you design with plants and pots. Yes, lots of inspiration! Thank you!

Pretty!

I tried to insert one of the overview pictures so folks didn't need to click, but was not successful.

Quarzon, is there a way to make them larger?

Snapfish doesnt seem to have a zoom feature. Its been awhile since ive used it and i noticed they uploaded at a lower resolution, probably some setting that i need to change. I like to order prints from snapfish and i keep old garden photos there for prosperity reasons.

You can enlarge the pictures by clicking on the magnifying glass in the upper right hand corner of the thumbnail. Really bad website design as you should be able to just click on the photo to enlarge.

Nice photos, btw.

Thanks Brian, but I did that and they still aren't very large. Quarzon, can you find your pictures by clicking on the Photo icon, or the Houzz Photo icon, both are below the 'Write a comment' box when you click it on, and post them on the forum?

Thanks everyone, I mistook enlarge for zoom. Adding photos here is easy enough. Now I can post all my plant identification questions.

Yay! Now we can really see them ... :-) I love the 'old ruins' piece. I'll bet that was not easy to pick up and move! And your fossils -- quite a collection. I have a few that I treasure. I also love your colorful pot arrangement. Plants in bright pots are pretty whether they ever bloom or not. The 'serenely meditating' heads are cute too. At least that's what I'd call them ... lol

We'll be looking forward to seeing many more photos from you.

The brick ruins was difficult to move. It took me about a week of me trying diffenent ways of moving it out of the creek. I had to move it about half a mile and up a small ravine and it is to heavy to lift by muscle alone (and im a pretty strong guy). I made a sled out of 2x4s for some parts of the creek bed and a hand truck for other parts. Had to learn some boy scout knots along the way. Amazes me to this day that i was able to manage it. I have this hobby of searching urban creeks for my garden junk; I find all sorts of interesting rocks, rusted junk, old bricks, and just cool stuff that gets washed into the creek.

And serenly meditating is probably the best description Ive heard. I have a macabre style to my home and garden, so the cool halloween day of the dead decorations stay up year round. I make it work without being tacky.
