Our House
is a very very very nice house, with 2 cats on
the bed, they're hardly ever fed...(if you believe what they
say).
The Front Yard - still working on
this
The Back
Yard - A.K.A. My Secret Garden
Here's my gazebo full of bird feeders as it is now

But I started out with just a hill covered with weeds and wild
grasses (left)
Which I solarized and then planted (middle)
Which grew into *my* secret garden (you have to pan to the right.)

First 2005
(barren) -- then 2006
(planted in a Lombard Street manner) -- then (pan right) 2007 (filling in)

My Yard
I fence off half of my property for my garden, and I leave the other half
natural.
Here you can see the meadow by my house with a
couple of fawns foraging in the grass

The View
On cloudy days the mists rest below me in the forest valleys
I like a sunset mist best

Though the view on the other side of the house is nice too
Redwoods are always majestic

And here's the view on my commute to work
