beed's casa.......literally

why did beed call it a bastard lily? cuz beed has about 9 zillion of them around his fence but every one of them look like the yellow ones below. the red one is at the very end. beed don't know what transformation took place but it happened somehow. we didn't plant it. the yellow ones around the fence are in full bloom now and beed will add an updated photo of all of 'em later.
below is a recent project that beed undertook. in the corner of the beed estate the water company for whatever reason saw fit to put beed's and 3 neighbor's water meters. the only problem is 2 of 'em were completely covered with dirt.....this begs the querstion. how in the hell were those guys checkin' how much agua we been usin' with those things covered up?
anyhoo beed got out his trusty hoe (not his trusy ho', that's an entirely different post....j/k) and chopped all the grass and dirt and unearthed the two meters that had been buried alive. he then took some landscape timbers (from the sandbox that beed disassembled) and spiked them into the ground.
then he used some of that black netting that is supposed to keep any grass or weeds from growing. it looked like this.
he then took one indentured servant (miguelito) who looks like this.
and we spread river pebbles around it. it now looks like this.
beed has also been workin' his culo off on opening his pool. when he drained it it looked like the photo below. after much cleaning and scrubbing he painted it with two coats of rubber based pool paint. 65 freakin' dollars per gallon X 4 gallons thank you very much.
added a new diving board, the one in the photo was cracked. replaced all of those missing tiles and grouted the entire thing. beed will post a new photo of the finished project when he posts the new photo of the lilies.
this is a photo of his 20 year old japanese maple.....it's gorgeous. it was only about 2 feet tall when beed planted it.
here is a shot of the beed casa. notice the landscape timbers lining beed's po' white trash gravel driveway. also from the former sandbox. as you can see, beed is not just a hoops expert. he is a man of many talents. he wears many hats.
landscape timber technician, pool painter, plumber, carpenter and last but certainly not least.....female eye candy.
your buddy,
the busy one.

Now THAT's what I'm talking about!! Love the photos - the lilies look like something Georgia O'Keefe might have painted!
Hope you're finally getting a chance to enjoy the fruits of your labor!
When is the pool party? :)
I'd bet your neighbors absolutely love you now, for letting the water company know exactly where the meters are and all! Personally, I'd be coming over to your house to beat on you a little bit, the first time I got a $400 water bill, instead of the $45 I had been getting!
Just kidding! The place looks great! I can tell you're proud of your joint, and your new camera. That manual labor is good for Miguelito. It'll help him get strong for football season!
However, doesn't it suck always being the person behind the camera?
