Horse and flowers in the garden on a neighborhood stroll

Look out friends, I have been on a stroll around our neighborhood and took some photos.
My neighbor's horse made me smile.

I was very surprised to see their horse.
In another garden I saw this pretty Mexican bush sage. The flowers feel like velvet and I have some in our yard too.
Isn't this palm tree handsome? I am guessing this is a date palm. What do you think?
That was a fun walk, and I hope you enjoyed it too.

  6. What a wonderful post!

    I love the Mexican bush sage (does it have a scent?)and the palm tree. The place where you live is beautiful!

    And do you know WHY your neighbor has a big plastic horse?! Hahaha! I wish I had interesting, goofy neighbors like that. Mine are mostly pretty dull!

  7. Your walk was an inspiration and a bit of a puzzle...why the horse? One has to wonder.

  14. Amazing to see the horse in the yard and makes me wonder is a replica of one they once owned.
    Tree and flowers are lovely.

  22. That purple flower looks a lot like the Spanish lavender at my old house, soooo pretty. And the horse is delightful. Thank you for the comment on my grandfather post, Terra. I think about him sometimes working on that railroad. :)

    Wishing you good November days.

    love, ~Sheri

  23. Ha, ha! This horse is a funny decorative detail. Instead of garden gnoms, storks or dogs, which is very popular in Poland, you can put horse in your garden. I would have it painted green with purple patches, so it will look even funnier.
