thank you all! I am very proud of my gardens... I love working in them and spring is hands down the best time of year... between the great riding weather, the amazing garden climate and all the baby wildlife... I just love it.

Geonz... the backyard is 5000sf. I am finishing a second patio right now that will have seating and a contained firepit... my "wine" patio... it is by the pond/waterfall... which is also still being built. Lots of work yet to do, but I am very, very close now... and since CAM didn't happen, I have kicked in lots of that time to completing the backyard...

Lise.. I've gone Iris nuts this year... I love the flowers of course, but the foliage also provides excellent contrast color and texture for many of my native plants...

maillotpois... deer... UGH! Cute, but man can they eat a years worth of work in nothing flat...

cali- LOL... yeah, the boys pretty much look like that... fat, snorty, wrinkled messes...

thanks again for ALL the nice comments and feedback...
