Recycled Inground Pool Paradise

My husband found this pool on craigslist. The owner wanted to have it dug up from her yard. He rented equipment, dug it up and reinstalled it in our backyard! To see more, visit my blog! http://awalkinthecountryside.blogspot.com/2...

Gardening: Anyone know what this plant is?

I have a friend who just bought an older house in Northern/Central Indiana, and these are coming up all over the garden beds through the weed-protecting fabric. She's not sure if it is a weed or an intentional plant.

My watermelon looking propane tank

Our propane tank is small since it only is used for our fireplace. The propane tank was rusted and unsightly. I painted it to look like a watermelon with a ladybug on top. It is in the shade all the time, so no danger of overheating due to paint.
