Before things got cold (and they're going to get a lot colder...), the wife and I ventured into the yard armed with shovels.
We had things to bury.
What we buried is a secret, but it's not really a good secret. We put into the ground things many homeowners put into the ground in the fall hoping things will transform in the spring. In a way, however, it will be a surprise to neighbors, I suppose. All summer we did nothing on that ground. It baked in the sun. Truth be told, we were tired after putting in the yard and it gets hot in the summer so we left that part of the yard unattended.
So, come next spring, the surprise to the neighbors will be that something has been planted in the yard and it will hopefully be beautiful and wonderful to behold.
Oh, and we've got our fingers crossed that what we planted actually survives the planting, the winter, and the spring to break forth and bloom.
That'll be a surprise for us.
