Surprises Appear...

Sometimes odd things show up 
In my water garden
Like plumber's art
Blooming lilies
And pecan blooms
A new hidden statue
and a nice surprise left by Hubby.
Always a surprise around the water garden.

OMGosh Gail, that sure looks real. Have the dogs tried to attack it yet. I like the plumbers art, the lilies are lovely and oh, what a cute little statue with the turtle. Great Photos :)

Snakes real or not, scare the bejesus out of me! We have a tiny little plastic one that husband gets me with just about every time he 'plants' it somewhere.

Love the other art.

You are so tough that you probably took that snake and wrapped it around your husband's neck! ;)

Love the lilies!

you already have water lilies blooming? mine are just now really putting out pads.

Please say that is not a real snake! I know they are God's critters too, but I prefer to admire their beauty from a distance... like about ten miles away! :-) I am loving your water garden though, and the plumbing is a cute addition!
