There are so many touristy things I have never done in the Toronto area. Like go up the CN tower. Maybe this summer.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10178037023728036622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6520893128143413982.post-2891446817720045762010-04-18T12:10:05.664-07:002010-04-18T12:10:05.664-07:00The flowers are real, Abe.

The local high school's playing field is all astro-turf. I'm just glad it looks real, but we know it, isn't given our lack of rain and watering restrictions. Most people have low watering yards and perhaps desert type gardens.<br /><br /> I will try to post some more photos later this afternoon.ChrisJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550420299395301062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6520893128143413982.post-22133629449320150052010-04-18T02:53:41.866-07:002010-04-18T02:53:41.866-07:00I really did enjoy my visit to your blog today. I ...I really did enjoy my visit to your blog today. I really liked reading what you had to say. And the Mister Picture was stunning. And you hat there made the scene imaginable. I like snakes and I don't like them. I had a stunning surprise of my own day before yesterday. <br /><br />We have wild violets that, if you let them get started, have exploding shells for seeds that, like bombs, send seeds all over the place, otherwise I am not able to tell you how they multiply with rhizomes. Anyway...several were beginning to bloom in a small patch of grass that was in the shade this particular morning. I got the dandelion spray out and was spraying them when off went a garter snake. A small one. Not big. But, and I know better, I could only think of a giant fish worm or night crawler and I even had my camera with the normal lens in the other hand. But the little guy was gone before I get my mind to catch up with my hands. So now we have to watch so we (Patty does the lawn mowing now since I can't breathe normally or without oxygen) don't run over them with the lawn mower.<br /><br />Back to your post.<br /><br />I also really like the photos. I mean the colors in them are just beautiful. Especially the last one.<br /><br />And, finally, I did not know human beings used "astro" turf or artificial grass. I thought that was just something made up by politicians in Washington -- to use artificial grass and save the green stuff -- the real stuff -- for big the wigs. Talk about a Tea Party, there is a reason for anybody to start one.<br /><br />Is there some place a person can go look at some of this artificial grass? Is it something anybody can buy and spread out on the dirt like you spread a comforter on a bed?<br /><br />Amazing progress. Artificial flowers and grass.<br /><br />You didn't say if the flowers were plastic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6520893128143413982.post-49813565988845381622010-04-18T02:28:04.079-07:002010-04-18T02:28:04.079-07:00I envy you this tour - A bit of that summer (at le...I envy you this tour - A bit of that summer (at least that is what is looks like to me :-) ) would have been nice.<br /><br />Thank you for the comment - no direct problems with the volcano ash except for an occasional tang of sulphur in the air and ash-induced rain. The grounded air transport, however, may turn out to me a very major problem.Rune Eidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01008247272056395901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6520893128143413982.post-88884818369206925142010-04-17T10:19:27.722-07:002010-04-17T10:19:27.722-07:00Oh Chris...What a delightful idea to take a day of...Oh Chris...What a delightful idea to take a day off and explore.<br /><br />I need to talk my MOTH into doing that!<br /><br />The pictures on wonderful.
