    I would have had more pictures but.....the batteries died after the first pictures erasing them as they went, had new batteries with me but they were evidently not very strong because they died just a few pictures later. But I did get some and really happy the water fall pictures came out so well.

    Was able to get pics of only 4 of the tree houses....

    This was really pretty, the large water feature had pumpkins, gourds and watermellon floating...Lisa is some what "persnickety" to put it mildly and the fact that some were floating upside down caused her some distress.....

    I will put the water fall pictures in a seperate post.

    I LOVE the watering can! The giant pot is fun too, I must like pop art. LOL about the pumpkins, I get that way too sometimes.

    Thanks for the great pix. Hate that your batteries died. My hubby and I got a great kick out of all the garden whimsy.
