Short update to my moment of Zen. I found him and it’s even cooler than it was originally!

Also, last weekend Sharron and I did some work in the yard. We’ve been trying to actually coerse our yard into being somewhere we’d like to spend time. We haven’t had too much luck yet as our patio is still too small to use. We did put out grass seed on Saturday though, so hopefully in a couple of weeks we’ll have a nice lawn.
The other project we’ve worked on in the yard this weekend was the first step in installing a pagoda. We installed some stones for the pagoda to sit upon:
Wow… That is a threadbare yard. The pagoda stones look nice, though! :D
Pat’s got nice rocks.
Er…
Nevermind.
coerce….
p.s. is it a lawn gnome pagoda? ;)
Definitely threadbare, hence the grass seed. :-)
Is it a gnome pagoda? Um…no? It’s just the regular kind I think.
Let’s get a photo of something near the pagoda base, for scale. How about a shoe? Or a whole person? :)
I have to ask: what is a pagoda?
Well, what I’m referring to is a small stone lantern that looks like a small pagoda. A real pagoda is a large building that has many roofs. http://www.geocities.com/mayuaqui2/paper.html
Here’s what we’re installing: http://www.cherryblossomgardens.com/images/karen6.jpg
