Wow what a great Pic. Pep.
Is that a feeder / Water trough for the birds ?
Is it your back yard ?

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

Nope. That's our fountain at the chapel at work. Took the pic in December when it was still running. But it would still look like that if it was still running. That's how cold it has been.

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

A chapel hey ?
What sort of work do you do there ?
Do you take Confessions ?

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

LOL. It's a wedding chapel built 10 yrs ago. No church services or confessions. Just weddings and concerts around X-mas. It's part of a botanical garden where I work as a custodian. Great place to work.

Good on jaa M8.

Do you have frogs ?
Because of our tropical climate
We have them all the time .

Clemmons, NC(Zone 7b)

We have frogs, but they're not that cute.
There's some kind of toad that burrows under mulch.
When I'm doing yardwork, sometimes I uncover them.
Scares the %*&# out of me when they suddenly jump out.

Course, I probably scare them too, messing around their homes.

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

We have them here as well. And they are in no way as cute.

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Yeah , this one is cute .
It`s called a Red Eyed Green Tree Frog .
They breed in the Gold Fish Pond .
They are about 1/2 inch long .
And there are 100`s of them .

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

We have toads .
They were introduced here.
And are now Pests .
A group of artists Freeze them and stuff them .
And sell them as BAR ornaments.
Next trip to Surfers Paradise ,
I`ll take some Pics and show them here .

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

Yeah, do that so I can print it and take it to work. LOL

Clemmons, NC(Zone 7b)

My 6 year old just identified the Red-Eyed Tree Frog from the pic!

Way cool!

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

It`s eerie in here today .
Did all of USA blow up and no one has told me yet ?
Or have yall gone Rock Climbing ? Cooooooeeeee!

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

LOL. I went to a remodel and lawn and garden show yesterday. It was a waste of money though. Would have been better off watching the motorcross that was going on in the big arena. I haven't heard if we blew up yet.

Clemmons, NC(Zone 7b)

Gee, ginger, like we need anymore fear instilled in us that we're going to blow up over here!
My 6 year old daughter-not son-LOL, was having a birthday extravanganza this weekend.
I'm a bit tired.
Wasn't able to play the mp3, though, and she wanted to check it out.

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Sorry tropicanna ,
Don`t know what made me assume it was a boy .
Glad every one is still well !!!

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Thanks Pep ,
I knew I could rely on your Expertise .
Now how about those Pics of yours ???

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

Haven't taken any in awhile. The weather has been gray and nasty with more nasty stuff coming in. And nothing is growing except for daffodils but they are still stubs.

Aurora, CO(Zone 5b)

How have I missed GFW? Dunno!?!?! Now I have something else to look at. Kell, been busy watching the snow melt. LOL

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

Hey, at least you have snow. All we have is ice though we have more snow coming in starting sometime tomorrow night after the rain. And we have had all this since December. Longest we have ever had snow or ice on the ground w/o melting.

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

vadap I know how it is .
If you don`t keep an eye on these things ,
You can miss so much .Fires are the same here .
You have to watch till they go out .
More fun than watching grass grow ?

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

Yep, more fun than watching grass grow. LOL

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

vadap ,
Did you hear an Echo ?
I thinks I heard an Echo .



lol

Clemmons, NC(Zone 7b)

ginger, don't you have some pictures for us?
I don't really take many, but I always enjoy yours!

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Today I went to 3 different computers and logged onto DG .
They all loaded the Kookaburra sound ?
Is your puter on Mute ?
I just clicked on the Link. Then on OPEN .
Less than 1 min on dial up .
This is all I have to offer today .
I`ll add a few more tomorrow .

I'll have to try that tommorrow when she gets home from school.
We saw a Kookaburra at the North Carolina Zoo. He's cute.
They have a nice Australian exhibit, with kangaroos, wallabys, lots of snakes and birds.

Nice fish tank. Our cats would never allow such a thing in the house!
Is that your artwork on the walls?

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

Same thing here. My cat would do everything in his power to get to those fish and eat them.

Clemmons, NC(Zone 7b)

I have a kitten who's shrewd enough to figure out how to knock that whole tank down!
Never mind that she's tiny.
She loves causing trouble,
Like trying to hang onto my palm trees which are inside right now.
She makes such a mess when she knocks them down!
