    I've never been in a junkyard that has trees. I'll have to go find me one of those.

    I love yards, it is very relaxing for me too. I just enjoy looking at all the potential laying around, it really gets the brain moving.

    If I ever had a yard, i'd have so many abortions laying around... i'd mix and match stuff just to see if it would work, and then never finish it.

    I know she needs one, but every time you make changes to yours the price keeps going up. Besides, I think you might be getting attached to it:D
