When dad called me to tell me about mom, at 5:02 p.m. two weeks ago to the day, I was sitting at our computer having just finished stitching together shots I'd taken moments earlier into a panoramic photo of our backyard. Then, as you can imagine, after dad's news I never quite got back to posting backyard photos that evening, and the next morning found me in the Detroit airport in the company of my dad, awaiting a flight to Minneapolis.
Now I'm back, and to pick up where I left off, this series of photos should hopefully satiate the curiosity of the few choice people who have asked what happened to our backyard moonscape. The last shot I posted was Oct. 2, which I reiterate here for continuity's sake, followed by Oct. 19 and Nov. 3. I don't have a photo from today, but it looks much different than Nov. 3, as we arrived home last night to find a blanket of snow covering our yard!

Nice! Keeping up those "Classic" skills eh? What about the bare patch on the left and under the bush? Is grass supposed to be growing there?
Nope, those are meant to be garden beds, as is the undulating bare patch along the back fence -- very observant, brother!
Ah yes, because the bare earth is so very subtle against the green grass...very hard to spot indeed! ;)
lovely! the yard looked great when i was there! good work!
...and here is the lushness through the desert! Hooray for this! ...I love the clean and fresh smelling scent of new fence wood too...ah, I can scratch and sniff the screen already!
