Bushy look without the bushes
Thick cover. This front yard garden I note during my retirement month stroll surely provides a lot of January privacy. I like the look, too.

Like a twirled cone? Strides up the neighborhood green triangle, I happen upon a pole that’s dark brown on the bottom and very lighter toward the top. So maybe all my conjecture back a ways was was wasted? Really, could those very brown poles have started their lives all light?
Consistency matters? It sure looks as if some planner somewhere had to decide which side of our neighborhood green space got the light-colored poles and which side got the dark-colored poles. And, I ponder during my retirement walk stroll, do they hold wires or wear differently?

Ready for the family. Does George Three have it in him for a winter fire in his new backyard fire pit, I wondered as I admired his and Elisabeth’s pretty outdoor setting under the white blanket.
