Seniors what do you have in your yard that isnt a plant?

Posted by admin
isotope2007 asked:


What decorative, creative, interesting or whimsical little something do you have in your yard that isn’t a plant ? Something you put there yourself.

I have a statue of St Francis which is about 3 feet tall, and a black Asian carp that is about 1 1/2 feet long and stands about 8 inches tall.
A sandstone plaque of some sort of face on the fence and 4 musically tuned wind chimes and one bamboo “chatter” windchime.

This morning I found a ceramic rabbit by the carp. Two things come to mind, someone put it there as a nice surprise for me, or whoever stole my 6 hostas left it to taunt me. Its where the hostas were.

I have the usual garden/patio furniture, mine is faux wicker, and an antique garden bench
And apparently had a rooster with a sense of humour LMAO
This summer I need to get another birdbath, mine also went missing :-( We arent allowed to use fire pits anymore damn environmentalists, it pollutes the air. They are trying to ban wood burning fireplaces too
I used to have half an acre and I was in heaven, even with the pool I had my own “park” ! Now I have a postage sized back yard, its enough for me, and the cat likes it.

Bamboo Wind Chimes
