Sorry to be critical, but in my opinion, the grass needs mowing. I prefer a well-manicured lawn. This one looks overgrown and messy.

I really like all of the overgrowth throughout the yard.

Beautiful!
Do you think it would be unhealthy to live in a metal box? I am thinking of constructing a cabin out of a shipping container that could be shipped around the world. However I am concerned about fung shui and resonating with the earths energies. Any advice?

Dahlia, many thanks for watching! The front yard turns bright red in mid summer with bee balm, which only adds to the yard’s beauty.

Hey, Chrispy! Rent episodes of “little britain.” You will laugh your head off! Bees don’t actually sting bananas, but if you eat a banana and go near bees, the banana scent in your body makes them GO FOR YOU!! (I once got stung by a bee that crawled up my leg. Painful!! Bees only walk UPWARDS, so they can’t crawl down your pants leg if they get caught inside. Bee trivia rocks!) :>)

PEACE!

Do you watch “little britain”? Andy in the wheelchair always says, “I want that un.” Cracks me up!!! We were blown away by this cottage and how cool it was. I was walking around with a BEEKEEPER from Massachusetts, and I took vids of her describing bees. They came out way too long for YouTube, but I’ll shorten and post soon. (Amazing stuff: Bees go wild over the smell of bananas because they smell like a place that’s just been stung; so it signals them to sting the banana spot even more!).
