    Thanks everyone. Yes the truck is definately my favorite. My hubby added it to my yard this spring. Actually it is the only thing he has ever helped me with. Maybe it is because it is a truck LOL !!!

    Kim, I've always loved your garden since the first pic I saw. There are so many things to look at and it will be the PERFECT setting for the wedding.

    Your brother is very lucky! A wonderful place for a wedding! ENJOY! Be sure to take lots of pics and share a few with us! What's a garden without weeds? I don't have any like that! TFS the pics! Jeanne S.

    What a really gorgeous yard. And that truck is especially wonderful. Your brother is very lucky to have his wedding there.

    hugs, Karen

    No wonder your bro wants to have his wedding there, calico! Your gardens are fabulous! So much excellent rusty stuff, including the old truck!

    Now, some folks would prefer a fancy cathedral, but if I was to be tieing a knot these days, your garden would be my pick!

    I'm not seeing any weeds, only beauty. Great pics ~tenderlee

    Calico, you are so lucky and deserve a big pat on the back. What a magnificent job. I have that same red chair. I painted mine last week. What a treat to see it. Love that old truck!

    I WANT that truck! I totally love it. Your yard looks great. I love the use of ladders too. Hopefully one day I can do my back yard.
    You should be very proud of the work you have done.
