This is what I call my back side yard and contains many unique conifers and plants. Low voltage lighting really makes it pop at night time.

Our most recent install down in Sea Isle City, NJ. Another happy beach customer who doesn't have to stare at sand or river rock in the backyard!

This pink willow tree sits between the houses of two of my neighbors. I'm not sure which side of the protperty line it rests on, but as it beautifies the whole block, it doesn't matter.

A little closer inspection of "snow white's" golden ring.

The sideyard garden is coming to life as the perennials grow--daylilies, Siberian Irises, Bearded irises, mums and butterfly bushes. The shrubs are still showing their spring colors. I still have daisies and seeds to plant.

My Life #1. I took this self portrait in the side yard of my house. A friend helped be take this photo because there was no place to set the camera. I was trying to show how my life is stressful, so I thought that by holding a lot of books I would show how I have to balance a lot of things in my life.

We took Samhain out with us to view the lunar eclipse. He was an outdoor cat for all 10 of his years -- I think we had the leash on him so that he would hang out with us while we were out there.

The fence surrounding the sideyard is distinctive. Isn't this neighborhood thick with powerlines!

It's probably time to come clean - well, after I finish digging in the dirt a little more. This is the result of five hours of outdoor work on Thursday.

Dog run area on side yard has new stepping stones. Door on left houses the hot water heater. Window on the front left of the photo goes to the front bedroom. Behind the photographer is a gate to the front yard area. This is the area to store garbage cans.

We have three maple trees in our yard. One has green leaves that turn bright yellow in autumn. The one shown in this photo has dark red leaves that turn this lighter red/orange colour in autumn.

 

The other, we believe to be a cross between the first two. We discovered it many years ago as a tiny sapling growing against the fence between our driveway and our sideyard, midway between the first two trees. We transplanted it into the backyard and its leaves are a red-tinged green turning an orange-tinged yellow in autumn.

Guests for Thanksgiving Picnic Dinner

I obviously let the word out that there was feed in my barnyard from which I feed my flock of ducks, chickens from. The turkeys somehow found out about it through their channels. So these freeloaders come by now and again to supplement their diet. They fly over the electric fence. I’m still trying to figure out how they learned that. This is our side yard about 50 feet from my west side door.

I wonder if they know they significance of having ten (10) genuine Native Americans over for dinner. Here in America for a LONG time before humans. After all they almost becoming the national bird. Benjamin Franklin wrote a letter to his daughter where he stated that the turkey was “more respectable” than the eagle, which he thought was “of bad moral character.” He argued vociferously for it. The turkey would have been on coinage/buildings/seals from the beginning. That instead every artistic portrayal of a regal eagle has been done since. The Eagle won, instead of the majestic soaring turkey (oh wait), well at least they are brave. Boy that snood is quite a protuberance as well lolol. . The males are plain annoying at times. I see dinosaurs in them.

Surviving the major extinction of the Megafauna at the end of the Pleistocene, the turkeys had a humble beginning in the Early Miocene. Their ancestors went back to avian dinosaurian history though. The Miocene was a time of high CO2, high biological productivity, and rapid growth of new species development from 22-9 mya.

Title: Guests for Thanksgiving Picnic Dinner

This year's display of lights on the blue spruce outside our home isn't as full as it usually is. We had a lot of lights, but many of them pulled from the attic didn't work this season, so they got recycled. We used what we had this year, including some bought from an after-Christmas sale last year.

 

These double-color lights were from a small set that usually stay in the house, but they went outside this year.

 

Hopefully in a few days, I can find some bargain lights for next year.
