It's a really cool looking house!

My idea of the ideal yard, though, is kind of wild. Ours is such that I only mow paths and we have almost 2 acres...lots of mulch and shade loving ground cover and shade creating trees...very secluded. But it needs some "management" right now.

I give you high marks for the ivy on the trees and the pine straw left naturally on the ground. Very cozy!

The only poisonous snakes in my county are copperheads and I've never seen one on my property. Frankly, I'd like to see lots of black snakes, king snakes and garter snakes. I'm actually kind of worried that they're getting scarce, like toads. You never see toads like I did when I was a little kid.

really? maybe its because they've migrated their way to my yard,....

before it got so warm i was gettin some wood outa the barn for the fireplace and came up on a family of six copper heads,...and they scared the shit outa me,....

I don't have any pictures right now.

We have 2.5 acres and my mom is the only one allowed to mow the lawn. A couple of years ago she found all these baby trees and now after my brother plowed over a few, she is the only "qualified" to mow the lawn.

My lawn has a bunch of small patches of long grass all over the yard with little flags in the middle of them where the trees are. It looks really weird and everyone asks me about it when they come over.

Your mom is right! Good for her. Grow those trees.

Well, you're 1000 miles or so southwest of me, right? (I'm in NC.)
