I love rock gardens and my whole backyard was red lava rock in my California house that I had.

Here things just grow out of control on everything so they are very hard to keep up.

My backyard was all decked and covered under two monstrous ficus trees and a few other smaller trees. Hurricane Frances put the biggest of my ficus trees through my bedroom's roof and it took a huge crane and three days of work to remove the tree.

Then last year's hurricanes did a number on what was left of my trees breaking huge limbs and destroyed all my decking.

This year I had all my trees topped and trimmed so as not to have anything else fall and make a big mess or worse go though my roof.

Now my backyard is seeing sunshine for the first time in over ten years and the ground is very fertile land from being under a forest canopy for so many years. It's a very rich mixture of black dirt formed from all the leaves and stuff.

Now the rainy season has started and WOW things are just growing out of control. It's much different then anything I've done with my backyard in the past and I miss all the shade but the growth of plants and the trees growing all new branches is very kewl.

This fall once the weather has cooled off again going to have some nice parties and also shot some new porn in it.

I see FoxyAngel catching and butt fucking Big Foot in my backyard this fall.

I would prefer to pour concrete, and put astroturf on it. I prefer low maintenance. Wife however prefers grass and doesn't like xeriscaping.

Other than that, going to meet some people for lunch -- Cleo, I think your class would be more fun -- its just a stone's throw away.

Then, back to work for me.

haha, forgot to hit post...

I can't stop clicking my heels… It's so good to be home.

I think I'm already dreading doing this again in two years…

I hurt my finger while attempting to start my lawnmower. I hate my lawnmower.

That's all I really have in me today. The wife and kids are sailing on Lake Champlain and I'm sitting here complaining about my boo-boo because I'm a loser.
