I live on the water too and landscaping is hard -not because of the view - but because of the salt level in the soil. Alot of things wont grow.Leo https://www.blogger.com/profile/13646642731074916053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343462107745336677.post-55441121037521346392011-08-06T07:37:20.408-05:002011-08-06T07:37:20.408-05:00That is beautiful landscaping, my husband would mo...That is beautiful landscaping, my husband would moan too and I'd tell him the same "get moving"!<br />I love the bows, I'll be back to see how you do it, a sewer I'm not but I'll give it a try and the girls look so cute with them in their hair!Something Nice and Prettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07672141781621068025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343462107745336677.post-43923902562194088052011-08-06T01:26:00.504-05:002011-08-06T01:26:00.504-05:00Child labor laws and you checked....LMAO!!!

Maybe you could get rockman to visit for the weekend and do his magic here.

I'd keep it simple, though. The simplicity will allow the natural view to remain undisturbed where if you do too much, it will no longer look natural and it will lose that tranquil effect.Pattyhttp://www.artisticimagesphotography.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343462107745336677.post-55150889073134708992011-08-05T07:33:55.804-05:002011-08-05T07:33:55.804-05:00Well, that is just lovely.
