Overview of Sites |
|
 Tropical
Fish
Killifish,
catfish, plecostomus, planted tanks.
An obsession. I currently keep more that 100
aquariums of different sizes. I would have
more if I had room.
 Gardening
We have about an acre in the NE
Atlanta town of Lawrenceville. Every year we plant a big
garden with vegetables, herbs and flowers. Lots of native
perennials
spread out around the property. Pictures and growing information
on what is working for us.
 Nature
Trips
There are some really great nature
parks and recreation sites in Georgia. The above picture
is from a park up on the border with Alabama in NW Georgia.
Great falls and hiking trails. This and other nature adventures
will be found on this site. Lots of pictures to entice
you to get out and see nature.
 Suburban
Wildlife
Every backyard can be an adventure.
Himmingbirds, birds, strange bugs and spiders, and all
kinds of animals can be found or attracted with just a
little
effort.
Learn
what
all you can have living and visiting on your little piece
of ground.
