I've been thinking about putting Fu Dog statues up at my house, near the front door. I've been looking into various options and still haven't decided what to do.

I'm not sure what book club they were in, but there was a pretty large variety of books so I'm guessing a best seller type club.

My back yard has been growing grasslands for a big part of the summer, there are even parts I don't think I've mowed yet. On the plus side, I've got some really cool plants growing, some 4-5 feet tall. One is a thistle plant with half inch spikes and several blooms getting ready to burst. There is another plant that is about 3 ft high with dark ( Read more... )
