assessing the damages...

as promised, here's the picture of the mini torpedo that came through the yard yesterday...

so tomorrow...me and the neighbor are going to try to get this straw back in the yard...notice the dirt...and the small drifts gathered around the hose... in the picture below, not only can you see the dirt in my yard, but in the upper left hand corner, you can see my next door neighbors yard...with another good chunk of my straw in it :(
....all dirt! bummer...but where did all the straw go?
...ahh! the neighbors yard...it appears he's just planted new grass seed over at his place...sorry, rick! :) (notice the flower bed just to the left of the stairs...covered in straw...the chiminea...now featuring a straw bed underneath...and you can barely see his greeeeen grass underneath all that STRAW!

...now, let's play a little game...see if you can tell what's different about these two chairs below...
...ahhh!! that darn cushion...ON THE LOOSE! (STILL!) ...i'm thinking if i wait another day or two, it will have blown all the way around the globe and racked up enough frequent flyer miles to take the whole family on vacation...[sigh] wishful thinking

...here's the flyer i really want to make and put in everyone's mailboxes!! haha...
the rose tree seems to be doing well...she's back outside tonite...blooming like crazy...i'm going to spend a little extra time this weekend packin in some extra soil to help it stand up!

you really should put the flyer in the mailboxes!! You never know who has the cushion and could give it right to you. They have no idea where it came from! Plus you don't want to have to make or buy new ones.
