It's beginning to look a lot like the tropics (part 3)

In the 3 year project garden .....where you are going to visit! lucky you ...it is heavenly and no snakes! I think ours are out already I have spotted my first Blue tongue this morning usually when they are out so are the red bellied blacks....darn too soon.....makes it a bit scary to go some places in my garden....oh well....better haul out the big gumboots ....so feminine ha ha ha...I usually stagger inside after one of these trips with foliage and bugs in my hair.
ha ha ha speaking of bugs look I know things are bigger and better in Texas but a 50 ft web?????

Whow! You are a braver man than I Gunga Chrissy! There is NO way I would be working in a garden with critters like that around...no ....no....nope not me! You have just won my DH's heart though... Oh yes, Carols gorgeous property.....incredible isn't it? We are all still looking forward to your pics...and I see that you are getting the hang of it very well! Thanks for the reminder about the spider web.....I want to check that out!

Willis point Texas,just now watched the spider web on the news,over 300ft long and the spider they showed was a weavers web spider,I go thru dozens of spider webs every morning,touring the garden in the dark,before heading to work,you know it's the little siders you can't hardly see that seem to end up biting me!!!

Big change coming in the weather according to MSN weather report,temps could fall in the mid to low 40's by the end of next week!!!! So the leaves will be on the color change mode
here shortly!

Shari how did you print the musical notes,I see that on my keyboard in the upper right hand corner,but when I click or push it the volume board comes up?

Go to your start menu....All Programs....Accessories....system tools....character map. Have fun!

Yes about those prettys.... it must be some fancy thing ...very cute!
Wow the web is that big TM.....must be something else! I guess you must have a lot to do if bad weather is coming...we get big hail in Summer storms it knocks the plants around pretty badly sometimes........wish I could see your leaves when they turn....however my peach ...apricot and plums...crabs and quince are all opening up now so I am lucky....it is lovely ...last Spring ...no blossoms much due to the heat
Shari I got that pic of the lizard off our gov site these blue tongues look scary but they are placid and eat the snakes so that means he is my friend...it just gives you a fright if he comes into view out of the corner of your eye because he looks like a snake......he is just a big old lizard

Oh! Well in that case, I'd probably really like him. We have lots of lizards and geckos in our garden...the geckos "talk" to us ....they click. I like lizards a lot...baby dragons every one of em!

Did ya find it Don?

7>NH&57>NH&5
Yes but it doesn't paste what I copied?
This was suppose to be in Japanese!

Speaking of Creckos,the little green guy on the car insurance commercials,does he have a English or Aussie Sound?

The DG font probably doesn't support the Japanese characters.....try something else.

Sorry Don, we have one vote for each here.....

♫Looky here!♫

Thought you guys might like to see what I looked like many ,many years ago,and of course my better half as well!

Unfortunately the gecko is english....probably from London area judging from his accent!

Chrissy, no way would I want to garden with some of your critters, better wear those wellies! My brother and his family live in Woolongong, they have moved into a flat overlooking the harbor - now I can visit! Didn't like the stories of the things they found in their garage and garden when they lived in a house!

TM, I sure hope your dream comes true. If you ever get as far as Maui you have a bed waiting! Someone who works so hard at tropical plants in your climate MUST come to see them in their natural surroundings...the heavenly road to Hana or Carol's area, beautiful!
Loved the photo of you and the missus...nice to see what you all look like. A very handsome couple!

How about posting picts of all the members of our family here at Tropical Gardening? Braveheart already did his bit....

Warmest Aloha to all....

Easy...Jenny and anyone else...my pic is in my bio...at least one that I don't mind people seeing! ha ha. I've seen Christi's - she is adorable by the way....and we saw your's with Braveheart on the other thread....so, come on everyone else! Of course we have seen John underwater! What you look like dry mon?

BHM I get to Maui I'll defineatly look you up!

Shari,Checked your bio pic,very handsome couple indeed!!!

I look like this. LOL

Oh I like other people's photos but I usually hide!....so until I am "clever " with Photos in computers here is a icky one of me...:(
Bro in law took it last year last year ....no where to hide there!!!!! and you will see his photo snapping..son walking behind ...it was a nice day and this is the only one of me I can find ....hope it does not break your screen folks!

Until I do get clever here are some postcards from Oz the biggest Island of them all :)

Inside the Sydney Opera house

The very heart and soul of our beautiful vast Land

Just a little touch of paradise

I live about twenty mins from this! the Blue Mountains :)

This is the famous Bondi Beach...where all the Tourists and Backpackers come and hang around waiting to see the white pointers!

Heading inland

Polly want a cracker?

Croc Trap!

Up Daintree way

Goodness, Chrissy. Oz is beautiful. Actually a lot like Texas. We have just about as many critters here as well. Maybe fewer snakes and they aren't quite as numerous where there are people. Everyone's pictures are great but most especially Pep. Watching the sun come up just now and it promises a great day.

A dragon tree

Now that is a specimen tree if I ever saw one!

Yes I agree ...she is so cute! Do you want me to stop?

Oh no, please don't stop. It is 7:35 AM at my home and this a really nice way to start the day. Did you take these pictures? We have so many talented photographers in our midst.

Just after 10 .30 at night here are you sure you want to see more POSTCARDS...ha ha ha no my lovely stuff is borrowed ...I will be doning the camera thing shortly....:) meanwhile if you really like them ...this is for TM

a farm

I'm very confident that you will excel in photography as you do in other endevours. Keep 'em comin'. Love it.
