Author Topic: Yard work, view from my tub (Read 10619 times)

Hey Zep...hope you read this because years ago I posted something about how my above ground pool just didn't fit with my nice new hot tub. You suggested that I pretty things in the yard up and somehow it would still look OK...Well finally..(about 2 years later), I have completed my yard project. The view from my tub is pretty nice now because I fixed up my fish pond and had some hardscaping done too.

from the tub:

Well, I'm not Zep but it looks very nice!

Thanks Vinny, I just meant that Zep was the one who suggested the improvements ...maybe to distract from the above ground pool!!

Looks lovely but am I missing something? Like the aforementioned above ground pool? Is it no longer there?

Inquiring minds want to know!

She did such a fine job, the pool blends in invisibly.

Haha...the pool is still there, just on the other side of the yard. It is not a focal point though because of the pond. And if I get my way, it will be bulldozed by next summer!!!

Boni....it looks great....fine job.

btw...you said in the PM I said your yard looked "lousy"..I can't imagine I ever said that...come on Boni my Mom taught me better than that!....lol....I might have said you could dress it up a bit....but if I ever said your yard looked "lousy" I must have been drunk or something...anyway....Congrats it looks great.

No no Zep, you didn't say it looked lousy, sorry if I said that. $:-\$ I was complaining that the tub and pool didn't fit together and you said that adding a few things and some landscaping would make the difference. So now I can view my pond and hardscaping from my tub and when people come up into my yard, the pond is definately what they are looking at..not that ugly pool. That was a long time ago, but I remember how nice your yard and tub looked...and I think I said I wish mine looked nice to.

I didn't save the IM that I sent to you, so I can't see exactly what I said...This new forum will not save your PMs out unless you check the box to save it.. $:-\$

It's cool Boni....you're one of my favs anyways.

Hey but we gotta start trading landscape pics....it's almost pansy time in Texas.

Boni....here's my alley...2 doors down...after a storm last week.

Oh my Zep...that's not a landscape picture..that looks like an insurance claim picture.
Here's a landscape..from my front yard...

Thats awesome Boni....I don't have anything like that....still working on making that happen...but I do have a lion in my yard..lol.....here is my side yard.

Bonibelle · « **Reply #12 on:** October 07, 2009, 10:52:56 am »

I love it Zep. Check out my lion..it's a bit older than yours:

dang Boni...where do live?...The Vatican?

Bonibelle · « **Reply #14 on:** October 07, 2009, 03:26:11 pm »

Just teasing with you Zep.

...but you are amazingly close!!..These pictures were taken in Siena and Tuscany Italy.

Pictures from my front yard would have cows and goats and would not be nearly as pretty as where you are!!

Hopefully, someday my front yard will be in Italy!!
