I just (May 2007) got a digital camera and thought I'd post a few pictures of our house. These are literally some of the first pictures I've taken with this camera, so they're not great art. But spring is springing up all over.

Here's the house from the front. Everything's growing!

Here's a different angle. We recently had the iron fence designed and put in.

This is the side of the house. We put in raised beds all along the side (and in back too). Here you see tomatoes, garlic, parsley, and part of a bush. The red stuff is called tomato mulch. It's plastic that supposedly helps the tomatoes grow.

Here's the back yard. It's like a jungle back there now. The spindly tree in the front right is a bay tree.

This is the patio. If you look closely, you can see I have a lot of weeding to do. There's a lifetime supply of rosemary on that bush on the left.

This is a view of the fountain, which was put in buy the guy who did the original garden plan and put in the brick and cement patio. He did the stone inlay himself and brought the surround from India. Water used to spout from the center of the stone flower, but it doesn't work any more. Now we have it bubbling up from the pot at its base.

And, here's Deb in the kitchen, washing some dishes. She really didn't want me to take her picture, and she wouldn't stand still, so it turned out a bit fuzzy.
