And that veiny succulent - never seen anything like it! I agree that it is too freaky, but imagine what it would look like with the sun coming through... crazy!

You are absolutely right: walking is the only way to really SEE. Seems like one could park almost anywhere around here, take a walk and come up with the material for an interesting post...kind of like that game where you spin the globe, close your eyes and point.ricki - sprig to twighttp://bannersbyricki.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-56476051772220713522010-04-08T10:57:03.229-07:002010-04-08T10:57:03.229-07:00Hi Loree~~ My favorite is the row of bamboo stock ...Hi Loree~~ My favorite is the row of bamboo stock tanks. I love bamboo anyway and this is just ingenious. The idea behind Tin Shed sounds wonderful. I love the bicycle wheel "fence." Thank you for this enjoyable tour.
