A couple of lily pics
« on: August 16, 2008, 07:48:44 PM »
This has not been my best pond year... to many things to do to take my time away from what needs to be done... It has caused my not to have as many blooms... but they seem to be coming back  @O@   @O@  The first is Mayla.  I am not sure of the second.

Beside the liner almost floating to the top and most all of the plants became overgrown I still love my pond.  This is a couple of pics of the waterfall that became overgrown and allowed the water to be diverted and getting behind the liner.  :-\

This pics are what had my time earlier this summer...  the first 2 is of the bathroom that was completely redone... I am very proud of how the shower and the vanity turned out... the the flagstone path and the pavier on the patio are great too..  I guess I should had named the subject.. how I spend my summer.... :D  And I just talked with my helper about building a deck at one in of the pond off of the patio and redoing the patio cover soon...  I am hoping next year is a simpler one ... how was your summer  :o

Thanks, HOWELL for your ID on the lily.. I did think that was what it was but after the promble with the line moving some of the lilies and moving a number of the lilies out into the new lily pond that was ready just in time, I am not real sure of what is any more but it is getting better   O0

Very nice!
I love your bathroom redo. Did you actually use a dresser for the vanity or is that one of the newer vanities that looks like a dresser?

No, Desertponder ... it is a real dresser I had bought at an antique store a couple of years ago for this purpose.  I paid $100 for it.  We just cut out the hole for the sink and glued the face of the top drawer in place.  The other drawers work, the second one is divided.  Painted it all to be water resistant.  I like it much better that what they sell in the stores and much cheaper too.. There is another part the redo.  At the end of the shower I had the end made into sheveing area and put in glass sheves ... I miss resizing that pic  With the plumber, carpenter, tile man and finisher in and out along with the dust every where it was nerve racking ... but I guess it was worth it .... I love it now... @O@
