How Does Your Garden Grow?

What's this in the Meadow? A weird egg? Nope, neighbor kids soccer ball.

The Leaf Lady's husband repaired the down section of the fence from last week, but heavy winds knocked down three more sections.

Junk waiting for the junk man to pick up. Bye-bye swingset. Such happy memories.

Bye-bye wavy slide and rotted remnants of the sandbox.

In the very early hours of the morning, I caught the cardinal hanging out at the birdfeeder. He even waited for me to get my camera so I could take a picture of him through the sunroom window.

The yellow slide and remnants of the sandbox are gone.

Either the junk guys did not understand take everything from the side of the house or the fact that the truck they brought was already half full, and I had a full truck's worth of sh stuff.I told them to never mind the stuff in the garage because I could see it would never fit in the truck. Deep sigh. At least, they took the weigh-a-ton televisions, two love seats, and the treadmill. Maybe we should check on the dumpster bags from the big Orange Box store.

The leaves on the Japanese maple are tenacious. Shriveled and brown, but still hanging on even through some gusty winds.

And because snow here is measured in feet and not inches, seemed like a good time to put out some Christmas decorations. The bells that line the walk are motion sensor and will play Christmas carols when you walk by. That's the theory. Hasn't been tested yet.
