Share your garden/yard/tundra pix


Yeh, yeh, yeh...I know we're in different climates. Some still frozen like Perry, but some warm (stay warm), like the FL kids.

Here's a couple of pix of my irises.

This variety is called Beverly Sills. Darn those oak tree volunteers in the midst of them I can't remember the names of the others, but they are white and lavender

Well dagnabbit! I'm having trouble posting them as large photos, so here they are as thumbnails.

You wanted pictures of yards and tundra......

here you go

the first one is of a piece of my front yard on Monday, the second one is a piece of my backyard back when we used to have summer here,(i live next to Sanford and Son in the ghetto,isnt Oregons ghetto great!) and the 3rd one is of my last tundra with 4000 miles on it after getting t-boned by a Hyundai going 80 in a 30 2 blocks from my house and rolling me 28 yards!! I cant find a pic of the other side (where they hit me)right now buts ill post it when i find it. I wasnt wearing a seatbelt and all i had to do was pick glass out of my face and then go help the idiots with their broken bones. They went 3 feet after impact. The forensic engineer gauged they were going 80 and had slowed down to 57 at impact. WE all were VERY lucky

Hows THAT for a tundra pic cath??

Cath, your flowers are gorgeous! We have a lot blooming up here, but the irises haven't started blooming yet.

Fly-guy -- I had no idea there was a truck called a "Tundra"! and yes you were lucky, thank heavens!

My flowers come with birds:

Baby Australian Bourke's Parakeets



Michelle, our Red-belly parrot playing in the pansies


Bartlett Pear Tree... it was barely above the eaves of the house when we planted it 8 yrs ago!


The pink and white tulip is called a "Shirley Tulip", thus Steve got the bulbs for me last fall...


Play-Doh, our Senegal parrot, in the flowering pear tree

Awww...I understand that feeling, Kelli.

I hope these garden, birds, and truck photos bring smiles to face here on TRT
