Hmm. That didn't work. Guess I did that wrong. Sorry. Let me try again, adding the Spring photo and, after we moved to Florida, some alligators in the back yard canal.

Here is the town that I've called home for 18 years now. This place has really grown on me.
It's a brand new day, and 3rd time's the charm, right?
So NC's Spring and Fall colors are worth a little trouble. Oh, yes - and the alligators in the back yard canal.
(Thank you, generous DCers, for the offers of help.)

MC I just went back to look at the photos. I remember once I asked my husband if he would ever consider going back to his childhood town to live. I got a very emphatic "NO!" I would have been very happy to live in the Lakes District. It is so beautiful.

There was also a rivalry between the Woolworth Building and the Empire Building. It was during the time anyone who had a pocket full of money, was putting up a building and wanted to have the tallest one in NY. I personally love the Chrysler Building. It is so unique.
Lizzie, that's gorgeous! You have a backyard canal? Wow! But alligators

Thanks, Taxy. Well, did have when we came down in '06. I'm a landlubber now. Can't say I miss having gators in the back yard; they're not very good neighbors.

So pretty!
Gators are starting to come more inland. Falls lake near Raleigh, a man who was fishing hooked a young one just before Labor Day Weekend!

Yes, the Chrysler Building is on my "to-do" list if I ever get to the States.There was also a rivalry between the Woolworth Building and the Empire Building.

Oh dear, New England in the fall to Monument Valley via New York and San Francisco - I'd better get an extended visa! And that doesn't even begin to cover the Everglades and the Great Lakes.

Did you get rid of the alligators or did you get rid of the canal and the 'gators were collateral damage?

GG, your street looks so perfectly Americana! I suppose it has no choice but to be pretty, what with you talking about what a friendly neighborhood you live in with your block parties and all

Aw, thank you! It's a great place to live. I missed the civic league board meeting tonight to feed the master gardener students. So much to do
