The Randomness Of It All

For starters, here is a picture of an orchid tree I planted off the back porch this past week. I love the shape of the leaves on it, and am hoping it survives until next spring when it may or may not have some pink blooms on it (too young to bloom?).

This morning I saw this out the front porch when I got the paper.

And finally, while out garage sale shopping this past weekend, Emily took this picture for me as I was at one point joking that I'd turn a toilet into a planter in our backyard, to match our bathtub that's out there already. On second thought, maybe I won't do that.
