I've got a 1500 gallon pond/waterfall setup with fish just off my deck. Anyone else here into water gardening?

Spring is in full swing and summer is right around the corner. With that being so, I'm getting amped for another season of backyard games. Horseshoes, Croquet, Washer Toss, ladder Golf, what have you I love them all (well most of them). What games do my Fellow BOTLs and SOTLs like to play in...

It has been in the upper 70's here lately and the unkept roses in the backyard are going haywire. I think I'm going to do some backyard maintenance even though my yard is only the size of a postage stamp. The coffee is being made and I'm having a hard time choosing between a cigar and my pipe...

Didn't want to open these (yes, two!) packages in the house, so I went out back to be safe. Damn things went off together and blew the leaves right outta' my trees. Damn powerful, man. Here's the carnage: There's a bunch of cool stuff here I haven't tried, and some I really like (The...

The weather was in the high sixties, the in-laws are in from Florida, and we decided to step outside, today, for a little relaxation. Nothing better than an impromptu "herf"...friends, Crown, and some fine cigars! Me...my brother-in-law, and my stepfather-in-law. What a day!!! :ss

I was just sitting on the back porch smoking a Nat Sherman Metropolitan I got from Bam Bam in a trade. (BTW, they're a great cigar. I just grabbed the rest that he was selling. You lose. ;) ) Anyhow, while I was sitting there a flight of bluebirds few into the yard, and have been there now...

So I was thinking to myself actually this stems from last year. I thought I should get a boat, a sail boat. Mind you I have no idea how to sail, I'll learn it on the way ! I was thinking about the whole construction of it, and to go do the whole stitch and glue method. Many of you might know...

Two spots (and mom) are tearing up the yard this summer. Awwww....

Congrats on the RG Michelle! :)

Was out playing with the boat on Saturday and out of nowhere, 2 Bald Eagles come swooping in, low and fast. One had left by the time I got inside to get the camera, but one stayed a few minutes for a couple pics!

has let me in on the fact that my neighbor and his girlfriend really enjoy "hanging out". That is all.

Manny's game 2 walk off home run just landed....

Neighbor has one and always liked it, so I'm giving it a whirl. Start out with a hole It's 14 feet at the longest point and 10 feet at the widest. 2 feet at the shallow end and 4 feet at the deep end. Shelfs are for plants. Framed out with 2X6's so it's as even as I could get it across the...

I'm thinking about having a backyard BBQ Herf so I'm wondering if there would be enough interest. I live in Peabody, Mass would be able to have a few people crash at my house plus there's hotels in the area. Spouses and kids will be welcome. I have a fairly good size yard with volleyball...

Me and the wife finally finished most of our projects in the backyard and now I can call it complete since my new ashtray came in today. Here are some pics of my setup for my nightly backyard smokes. I had a great Gurkha Regent, I believe some one here sent me this but I can't seem to remember...
