I take lots of pictures, but I tend to ignore my favorite plant on our property.

That’s the sugar maple in our side yard. It provides deep shade to this end of the porch in the afternoons. Between the shade, and the breeze that constantly blows, this is one of the best spots on our property. This pictures was taking in the morning, so that’s the maximum amount of sun that side of the house gets.

When I come home from work, I like to sit on the edge of the deck, and look out over my plants in the side yard and watch traffic go by.

This is the view I have when I sit on the edge of the porch, watching the cars go by.
