    The leaves are coming in heavy, my grass is finally growing, the birds are chirping, and the flag is flying.

    Your leaves are coming a little faster than ours. Yeah, standing on our deck this morning was really nice too. Little breeze, perfect temp.

    I like your firepit area. Very cozy little spot with the stream in the background :)

    With the rains and longer daylight hours here, you can almost hear the leaves popping out of their buds. New life again. Your place looks homey and inviting.
    +1 on the cocktails.

    that's a great spot you have. Nice and private. :) I bet that clay fire place makes all the difference.

    You have a lot big rocks around your property. Very nice!

    Yea, it looks like clay because it's so rusty, lol. It's actually an old Englander metal fire pit. Nothing better than a couple brews around the pit!

    I'll bet the leaves close that area off like a green screen, when they're full. Same happens here and at our cabin.

    Yea, they do...... the trails stay open, minor trimming here and there once and awhile. But when cutting back there, I usually need to clear a safe working area. The overgrowth hides what lays on the ground, boulders, roots, etc.

    Beautiful evening here. Already down to mid 50°s but much warmer in front of the pit listening to people doing some night atv riding in the distance. Life is good! Got alittle smoked out in that last pic.

    They look about the same as mine here in Augusta area. After this rain, and sun tomorrow, you should catch up.

    They're already exploding here. My woods, that I get to look at during the cold months, have been painted green.
