I am a water sign (Scorpio) and I think that is why I like living near the ocean and like the sound of a water in a fountain or a waterfall. It seems to soothe my soul. I can't imagine my gardens without the backyard waterfall and now the front yard fountain. All is in balance now! LOL! I know ... I am probably crazy, but that's what I like in my gardens... the sound of rushing or trickling water. :-)

Here is a photo looking out into my garden bed along the back of my house. The waterfall is right out there too so that I can hear it right next to me when I am sitting out there. I could literally sleep out there with those sounds. It is my sanctuary. My dh has come to love sitting out there as well when it is a little cooler. He too finds the sound of the waterfall very serene. I catch my kids out there talking on their cell phones too. This area gives off good vibes.

But ...

as you can see ... I have the table loaded with potted plants. LOL! Every now and then, I manage to clear it off and it can once again be used as a table. But then I start stacking stuff on it again. I think what I need is a potting bench out in the yard somewhere. That is something I don't have that I would really use! I could move all the junk out there under the bench. Maybe I will be able to talk my dh into making me one at some point in time. :-) That's the plan anyway and I am sticking to it! :-) He just doesn't know yet. LOL!
