I am currently looking for the picture, there is an old house on our family ranch. When my husband and I started dating 16 years ago you could still walk into the house, not al the way in as the roof was threatening to cave in. Now these few years later, you cannot tell there is an actuall house underneath the Wisteria and Bougenvillia. Seriouslly you cannot see a house only leaves and stock and flowers. It is actually glorious to see. But it was the wisteria that took the house down. My brother finally cut the power to the place about a year ago. (grin)

Ohhh I'll bet that is a pretty sight. We live in a remote area in the woods. Out past us in the middle of nowhere there used to be an elderly couple that had an antique store in their home. We loved to go visit and shop. Their front yard was covered with a metal pipe frame and fencing material on the top of the frame. In the middle, a wisteria plant grew up and thru the fencing. The blooms would drape down on the underside and the wisteria leaves would provide shade for the patio. A delightful place to sit and while away the hours... That was pre digital camera days, too bad!
