I have a patio cover off the back side of the house. The deck was out in the yard, under that tree. I have four other trees in the back yard. Three Bald Cypress and a Pin Oak.- which is not a great tree. I used to have a large above-ground pool on the other side of the yard and there is a breaker box and service on that side of the yard. The deck is 30 years old and needs to go anyway. Thinking of rebuilding it on the other side of the yard where there is electricity.

Old pictures of the patio (in different phases and stages) - I am in the process of re-doing that now as well. The whole back yard needs to be done over.

And the old pool. I got tired of dealing with the leaves from all the trees and took this down. I really miss it during the summers. I think this picture was a morning after a pool party. Usually didn't have all the floats in it. :) Anyway, thinking about putting a deck over in this location to take advantage of the electrical that is no longer used.

After the day I have had - plus it is now storming here (just an afternoon Louisiana thunderstorm) I thought it would be a good time for a Hurricane!

The recipe I used:

3 oz Dark Rum
2 oz Passion Fruit infused syrup
1/2 oz Lemon Juice
1/2 oz Grenadine

Pour the grenadine in the glass and combine other ingredients in a blender with 1 1/2 cups if crushed ice. Blend for about 5 seconds and pour into the glass. I then lightly stirred to partially mix the grenadine and added a little more crushed ice.

I love all of the American flags on display. I am old and was raised to respect the flag. Although I was never in the service, I was raised in a military family. I am from the age of saying the Pledge of Allegiance every day to start the school day and even learned how to properly display it and to treat it with respect. I am saddened by the lack of respect she receives today from some that live here. It is more than a piece of cloth. Thanks for posting this. A really beautiful sight to see.

Thanks. I was raised the same. Pledge every day. Learned how to take care of the flag in Scouts. Still means a lot to me every day when I see flags around Manhattan. It always reminds me how different we can be and still love the flag. No one ideology owns it. I love this country. Almost despite itself lately. When did political parties become like sports teams with “fans” of blind loyalty? America stands for thinking for yourself.

Full disclosure: I became a registered Independent a few years back.

Hi everyone. Missed everyone yesterday, but spent the day just hanging with my sister. The last time we saw each other was a weekend trip to NYC 7 years ago. We had a great time :)

Hope everyones had a great day!
