Backyard







I did some yardwork today, and figured I'd show you all a bit of my yard. The gargoyle use to sit in my garage, but I decided a while back that he needed some fresh air. I got him , cracked wing and all, at a garden shop several years back. The windchimes I got from a couple of freinds a long time ago...you gotta like chimes with pentagrams. Finally, after all the work i did in the yard today, I decided to relax in my palatial above-ground pool. Actually, it's for my dog Odin to play in and get baths, but once in a while I use it myself. Hey, it's not bad for 6 bucks. It was nice sitting in there drinking Newcastle Brown and Strongbow cider this afternoon. Hope you all had a good Sunday afternoon as well.

Man I can see this on an episode of Cribs. Gotta love the pool.

I have a pool almost as embarrassing.

Cool Gargoyle though.

I love the gargoyle! I once painted a table a color just because the name of it was Gargoyle's Shadow. My one sad attempt at home improvement. Big fan of baby pools as well.

Charles, if I ever get famous, I still doubt that I'd make it on "Cribs".

Heff, I doubt if your pool is anywhere as embarassing as mine is.
Glad you like the gargoyle,though.

Michelle, glad you like the gargoyle gargoyle! I sometimes am led to paint colors or wines or beers beacuase of the titles...although I have discovered some pretty good wines and beers because of it. Glad you like the pool as well. I probably got it at least 12 years ago...Odin is 12, so that's about right, because I got it when he was a pup. I stopped at a Toys-R-Us and looked at their kiddie pools. This particular one was the last of that model, and it was on sale for $6.00. It has served Odin and I well over the years.
