1. I see a fence, then over the fence, my neighbor's kids swimming
in their pool. Nothing interesting though.

10. A dramatic sky from the sunset
and some spies in the shrubbery over the road, no doubt the work of wildhorses.

13. My dear wildhorses!
I just went back and took a whole mess of pictures...I guess I'm the only one to do it! BTW, these are from my master bedroom deck, which is on the second floor.....and the hill slopes away to the south......

My back yard faces south.....and the pics start in the southwest, and move to the southeast.......Hope you like them!

26. My dear wildhorses!
I love those pine trees too...they belong to our neighbors!

I'm a little tired of the terra cotta, though, but what can you do?

It isn't as visible at night, at least!

Glad you like them!

:hi: :hug:

24. Yes, and I usually use garlic, not salt.
If there are enough, I'll do some in chili powder.
