The Grass Really is Greener on the Other Side of the Fence

The black dot is Chimmie racing around the backyard
Our yard is really starting to look great.  For years, both the front and the backyard have looked sad.  Now it's green, our bushes are trimmed and our front flowerbeds look so pretty.  The flowers Sarah planted last year are coming up.  Even our neighbor who has the worlds perfect lawn, commented things are looking better!

Tom power-washed the fence and retaining walls They both look brand new.  Yesterday a man driving by stopped to tell Linda how nice the wall looked!  He wants to do the same type of wall at his house. 

Linda is trying to decided if she should buy some furniture for the deck.  Right now there are four $5.99 folding chairs, and a few various lawn chairs.  This is what she wants:
This is what she can afford but

I guess the cheap set will fit right in.  (Notice how Chim is in every single picture Linda takes outside.  He is such a photo bomber!)
