On another forum a month or two ago someone posted a pictures of the mountain view from his back yard, and several other folks showed of their own view. So whats it look like where you live? Here are a couple different angles of part of my back yard. Thats the fence around the lagoon. I often take for granted how nice it is out here it the sticks of Missouri...
Plenty of forest, wildlife and we've planted flowers and fruit trees. Its an absolutely beautifull place to barbeque with freinds and family when the weather is as nice as it is now. Thanks for looking/sharing.

Greeeeen grass :P. Lovely. We have been in drought and are not allowed to water our grass, only our garden for an hour twice a week.  :'( Your yard is very nice. ;D

That looks like Eden to me.  What time is dinner?  It'll be a long drive, but you'll never get rid of me.

My backyard is a 10x20 patio.  That's it.  Then there's about 20 feet of grass with a bush in the middle that separates our patio from the neighbours out back.  That's what I get for living in the greater Toronto area.  Urban sprawl at it's finest.  I dream of a yard like yours, where my kids can go play, and I don't have to worry about traffic, I can plant a garden, and actually have that in the ground, maybe some fruit trees.

We rarely have to water our lawn. We usually get plenty of rain in the spring time, sometimes too much.

Topher, come on down this Sunday, we're havin' ribs.

The only picture I have of in my backyard that is loaded to my site:



A sunflower plant, and a very lovely one that grew in our yard last year, now they are little budlings popping their heads out of the permafrost.

My Backyard is still the disaster that the contractors left for me. :D  All dirt and rock with two lonely japanese maple trees planted in the back.  This weekend, we're going to build (and hopefully finish) a 12x20 foot deck to the back of the house.  After that, we can take the summer and seed for grass, put in flowers, probably another (taller and shadier) tree!


Do add this coin to my collection?

My wife takes great care of the back yard.

We have a deck along the entire back of the house.  Beautiful flowers.  A fish pond complete with fish and an aquatic turtle.  Grass is now green.

Nothing super special, just a nice place to spend time.

 :D :D :D :D

Don't have a back yard as such
the two white smudges middle left are my house and workshop. The clearing to the left is where I set up my portable saw mill. The brown patch is the sawdust pile. Not may people in Amite county so Google earth does not have the best resolution
The round brown smudge on the bottom left is my pitifully attempt to build a fishing pond. The building on the bottom right is a lumber drying shed. The whole plot is being or has been plated with Hybrid lob lolly pines. The ones around the house are around 30 years old and have been thinned.

Catapultam habeo. Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabis, ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam.

My place is about 130 metres  in length and extends into the trees. It's a contrast as the backyard is bush but the front is city.
