Hal-lay-loo-yah!

Hal-lay-loo-yah my front yard is in!

Oh happy day!

It's not quite as "grand" in some areas as it has been in other years, but I added 2 new pots in the flower beds so I guess it compensates for lacking in other areas... right? Everything's in and it will just continue to get bigger, and bigger, and bigger...

Scenes from the back yard...

it's not all in yet but there is stuff blooming all around!

And would you believe that my lens (the one that was in the shop for 3 months) DIED in the middle of taking yard pictures.

ARGH!

I went in my house, called the camera repair man, and told him I need to use one of his telephoto lenses until he decides what to do with mine... for the millionth time.

FRUSTRATION!!
