Never mind the trees. Would you look at that grass. Where are you located. Really beautiful trees and grass as well.

God, I hate to admit it, but I also noticed the nearly perfect turf. I hate grass(unless im golfing), but it really popped out at me. Awesome stylings, Im impressed how you carry nice taper throughout the tree. Sometimes you see these old stumps with a green helmet slapped on them, but these have nice branch placement, taper, ramification etc. I bet they look great in bloom with the contrast of that old wood and blooms.

wow !! had no idea unintended pictures of my lawn would provoke such comment. so here are some random yard pictures providing something for everyone - the tree guys and the grass guys . sorry the trees are so crowded. too many trees for too little bench space. not the greatest but it is what it is. happy to share.

best wishes, sam

[sam]

again. from the third picture on, we are over on the wide side of the property where the main stash lives.

[sam]

[sam]

best wishes, sam
