oh what to do on vacation..... work of course!







Well as some of you may know I am about to leave for deployment soon and as is custom in the navy you take some leave(vacation) before you go and when you come back. I like doing nothing as much as the next guy but after awhile I get restless so I planned a few projects for our new house. the current project is the front yard. so far I have planted a few border plants and made a nice little border as well as put up a bird feeder but now I am busting out the shovel and getting dirty. The plan is to dig up the grass by the side walk and line the walkway to the house with some flowers. Sarah liked marigolds. once it is finished I think I will call it the yellow brick road. dont worry I will not hire any winged flying monkeys to harrass people traveling down it. maybe a talking scare crow but do to poaching laws in viriginia no cowardly lions *shake fist* damn you and your common laws!!





above are a couple pics it is still a work in progress....

  1. I'm sincerely disappointed. Marigolds are great and all. Slightly reminiscent of a certain childhood home of Sarah's. But Flying Monkeys! That would've been a house I could safely call home. And completely follows with Sarah's high school performance as the lovely green Elphaba.
