I have been working on my landscaping for the past two weeks and so far, it's been a good experience. You see, I live in the Mojave desert in one of the harshest climates in North America. Last year I attempted to grow tomatoes, green peppers, and few other water hungry plants. The plants would thrive as long as I watered them everyday, but once the fruit developed the sun would turn it into a small, black carbon ball. This year it will be different. I have completely ripped out the backyard and turned the soil. Everything that stood in my way has been destroyed. I am to my backyard what the Cloverfield monster was to NYC. All of the plants that I've planted are Mojave desert natives. The ultimate goal is that in two years my backyard will be a multicolored paradise of desert wildflowers. The ground will eventually be covered in "red-ish" rocks with a two foot wide wash filled with river stones. I know that it looks pretty poor in the pictures, but open up yer minds real wide like, turn on some dramatic music, and just try to capture the vision.

I think I can see... yup there it is, nice flowers and... wait, nope its gone. Sorry. I tried, maybe you need to see it in person.
Thanks for at least trying. I've had friends come over and they have failed to experience the grand vision that will be my landscaping. Maybe I need to get some peyote and build a sweat-lodge? I've heard that that has aided in vision enhancement.
