is that your back deck? orange you glad the leaf fell there?

I actually placed it there myself. It's on my deck.

green leaf on an orange deck
placed there by a sentient being
before the next breeze!

Another example of southern foliage for our northern friends, a Magnolia.

Beautiful flora, guys.

We enjoy magnolias here in Southern California, too, SD.

Your photos are marvelous, as usual, and mine is over-exposed, but here is my contribution to the deck parade of beauties.

I claim absolutely no credit at all for this space and its floribunda. My beautiful wife has nurtured every leaf.

First the path leading TO the deck . . . and then the path leading AWAY from the deck.

The line of trees behind the flowers is the twelve-foot-high wall of juniper trees, densely interwoven over the decades . . .

Reminds me of Monet's garden at Giverney.

Zlatko, at first glance that wall looks like a cliff not juniper. Definately a wonderful wall.

My wife keeps wanting to have the trees taken out, SD, but we've finally arrived at a little treaty over the juniper wall-- as you aptly named it.

I understand her point of view:

The trees are dying from the inside out . . .

The branches keep popping out, particularly after a rain ( we had a drought for six years)-- it's only this past winter that the "branch-popping" got bad . . .

But the juniper "wall" provides so much privacy, it would be a pity to see it go down.

In Ware Neck there are only a few businesses. One of them is Brent and Becky"s Bulbs. Martha Stewart works closely with this well known bulb export business. They are world famous for their bulbs especially daffadils.

I wouldn't be suprised. I do know that during her trial her film crew was filming there but I couldn't get any details. I actually asked the crew if I they would grant me a short interview. They declined saying they had a plane to catch. But I wasn't born yesterday. They were driving a mini van with NY plates loaded with all kinds of equipment. I was a victim of the perverbial brush off.

What were the questions that you were going to ask her????

Well she wasn't there. It was her film crew. They were filming footage for a future special of hers. I was going to ask the basic questions, what they were up to mostly. I do a little writing for my local news paper and thought her film crew visiting Ware Neck would have been an interesting story but it just didn't happen.

A lot of filming goes on in Gloucester VA. (Ware Neck)
