Actually, some of them are trying to pretty up there yards, but lots of the people are renting. very old and/or very poor. Then the one lady that used to keep her yard quite nice years ago, is sick from all the cancer treatments she had over the years. I try to keep my yard nice so others can enjoy it. Lots of people who walk by thank me for keeping the yard nice and say nice things. I am just happy to not have neighbors who spray deadly chemicals and they do not mind my barking Poppy too much!

here neighbors do not keep there yards up much but like to drive new cars .Only bad chemical sprayers that spray to kill are the ones that do the big power towers to keep brush down .Problem is they spray on windy days and if i see there helicopter i figure they are spraying so I put a big tarp over my pond .Towers are over 2 miles away but winds can make that stuff travel

Many Thanks Tula, I just love my ponds and flower gardens, and practically live outside this time of the year. I sit outside by my pond from Morning to evening, whenever I get the chance. I am going to paint the rest of the fence today and then clean a little tank inside the house. It is all work work work, but when it is creative work by the pond then it is all good!
