Wildflowers in town

 These friends of ours have a really pretty array of flowers in their Hyde Park yard. 

Now that took some work!

 These folks put in some sweat equity to get those leaves sacked up! Nice job!

Walking yields wonders

 

In Austin, you will find wonderful hand-painted signs like this one in people's yards. I love the sentiment. A nice thought for the new year. 

Let's Go Inside

 

On one of our walks, we saw a bunch of quickly-abandoned bikes in a yard. Here's hoping the kids all belong to a 'pod' and aren't spreading the virus. Tha's all we think about any longer. Sad.

Landscaping Coup

This is in a private yard in Bryker Woods. That took a bit of work!
 

Wow! Yard art that really is!

Saw this sweet piece of yard art at a fancy house in South Austin the other day.

Another good sign

Signs like this one are all over the inner city neighborhoods in Austin.

Geodisic dome?

Whatever the purpose is supposed to be, this dome is a nice shape to see in a South Austin neighborhood yard.

New Way to Recycle the Topo Chico bottles

These folks decided to bury their Topo Chico empties to make a border from some mulch and new plants.

Outdoor recreation

This house in South Austin has a treehouse, a climbing net to get to it and a nice basketball goal. Entertainment for the young folk in the time of COVID-19.

Colorful and Patriotic

This yard in South Austin has the floral display (azaleas in a pot? azaleas don't do well in our soil) and the flag.

Good advice

I have to remind myself to do a lot of this activity these days.

Watch out!

I don't know who Doug is, but I don't want to find out!

Kiddy Ninja

Our recent neighborhood walks are revealing that these setups are popular. Perhaps so the kids can train for American Ninja Warrior.

Yard Door

This old door serves as a gate to a yard in Clarksville and a place for the mail box.

It's scary how early holidays come

This West Austin yard was tricked out with ghosts about two months before Halloween.
