Summer front yard

This will have been taken before your morning glory was established, I assume? Very attractive and the trellis is nice too.

Yes, before morning glory invasion:) Since I came to US I found out about trash days - that's when people take their trash out to be picked up by trash service early in the morning of next day. These are wonderful days if you go and forage in some rich neighborhoods. Successful hunt can result in such 4 trellises.

Wow...that is a wonderful find, Tate. I know of people who will forage through skips when homes are being renovated and it's amazing what can be found. We also have a group online that you can join in a lot of communities called "Freecycle" where people can offer items for free or you can post a request for what you're looking for. Great recycling!

You mention about coming to the US....do you mind me asking where you were originally? Was it the UK? I am an import from Canada to the UK...many years ago now...1983.

I am from Russia. Came to US 5 years ago, and a month ago became a US citizen.

So a whole new life opened up for you...and you are now a US citizen. Lovely, Tate.

Yes, this weird life... Never know what can happen...)
