from the back garden

OK - it's not as spectacular as those railroad tracks, but it's still pretty good to have out of one's back door.  And it's great to have NM peace and quiet (I have a full work/writing week ahead) - even if I don't, as yet, have any water that doesn't come in large plastic containers.  And what did I do with the first one of these, after I brought it inside from the car?  Why, fill the birdbath, of course.
