  • This basement office now has a beautiful view of a small waterfall. Open the window to enjoy the sound! 3
  • Creative use of rock provides inspiring scenery. 1
  • Isn't this view much better than the ordinary corrugated piece of metal you typically see out a basement window?
  • A mix of plants and rock was used to provide a fantastic view.
  • Cleaning the windows becomes more enjoyable, too. No more stooping into a spider-ridden window well.

To Preen or Not to Preen-Is there a question?

Now that it's officially spring here in the Northeast we're getting tons of weeds. But I've been using Preen successfully for years. It's not meant to kill weeds but prevent them. I use it sparingly after the first use of the year. Does anyone have a successful schedule of using it apart from the directions on the container. Thanks everyone. www.homerepairtutor.com

Outdoor Living: Anybody know where a person could purchase a pre-made table/bench to go around a tree?

My husband says he could build one - but I would like to have it to enjoy before I get that old :)
