Size 38 Kees, please.

:pray:

But wide

:pray:

& if I had a red pair, & I took them off in the garden (meaning veg. g., not lawn/yard), I'd be able to find them.

:pray:


& European sized shoes always fit me better than North American sized shoes

:pray:

Yowsers! You see the pair on that brunette? (sorry, couldn't resist)


Now you guys have me wanting some lawn treasures for my own. Concrete alligators are popular down here, but I've resisted because I always thought I'd forget about it, then give myself a heart attack some morning while walking to the dock in the fog.

There's a place down in the Valley that sells giant concrete statues of everything. I'm partial to the hippo, but it would take a flatbed truck to haul it home. The newfound respect I'd enjoy in the neighborhood would probably make it worth my while, though.

I had a coworker who absolutely hated anything like that, so one day I got a couple of pink plastic flamingoes and planted them prominently in her yard while they were on vacation. If only I'd had the mooning gnome, I'd be famous!

Jo,

I came to collect on that bottle of wine!

I have a pair of pink flamingos that I put in my front yard. They're so tacky, they have gone full circle and have become collector's items. I also love things that whirl and twirl in the wind. Bought several--a rooster, a fish, and a circle that goes 'round and 'round.

You would hate me as a neighbour Murray! I really, really like things that make me laugh and are whimsical.

Great clogs Kees--bet they're great for gardening!

Red, white, or rose?? :floorrollin:

Me, too. We do the eclectic thing in the yard...twirly rainbow things, wind chimes, no gnomes as yet. I like the alligator idea!!

Lon, when we camp on the gulf, we call our campsite "Camp Chateau Debris." We even made a sign!

All beachhouses have "Camp such and such" or at least a name, as well as lake cabins and homes.

You can nail them to the wall and put flowers in them, or put a mast and sail on them and sail them. If all that fails, trow them in the fireplace, they burn like nobody's business
