You are very talented, Michelle. I too love that vineyard drive. Simple and timeless.

Sigh. Your work always leaves me content and peaceful! I love what you do.

If you ever find yourself in Los Angeles, I'd love to hire you for a consultation. You offered great suggestions on Dave's Garden for making a kid-friendly little side yard on my busy, non-private corner.

Keep the pictures comin'!

Greetings All,
Thanks for the comments.
It always feels good to hear what you have to say.
And I could use some uplifting news these days.

Seems like what is left of my left lung and my compromised right lung are in a state of revolt.
Feels like one or what is left of the other has collapsed again and I might be in for another round of who knows what .

In the mean time, I keep a positive outlook and am thankful for each day.

Keep happy and gardening .
Michelle

The metal back drop to the outdoor kitchen looks amazing. I would love to see more of that.
