    These are my Gnomes, given to me by my kids. I might have more, but I think they may be frightened by all my frogs. :p

    I have one gnome. I think every garden should have at least one.
    I thought I had a photo of him on my camera... guess not.
    I'll get a photo over the weekend to show.

    Cheryl, your gnome may just be camera shy. Try to catch him when he's not aware of the lens!

    And then there is Nickoff,I have the feeling that he is being held against his will, does anyone else have that idea?
    He lives in a friends garden, but has complained bitterly about cruelty...no one seems to take notice.
    He doesnt look that good in that outfit either.He needs a skin cancer checkup and a few other things looked at, but difficult to get him away.

    After checking around the garden for a while today, I finally spotted Ghomey making himself quite at ghome under the old wooden bench.

    This may be why I can't get a gnome to stay:

    This gargoyle moved into our front flowerbed and has pretty well taken over. He looks threatening, but hasn't caused any damage yet.

    Jane... I'm surprised anything stayed with that ferocious looking guard! Hope the hens don't see him!
