Took some pics of my plants in the snow and of my winter protection.

Sure does.
It'll be coming up in your neighbor's bathroom soon.

Tim,
Hardly any snow for you this year (thinking back to your "lights in snow tunnel" pic from a couple of years ago.)

I'm dying to look inside my protection.
But they still have 3 or 4 months of isolation to go...

Thanks Jim and Barb, the Bamboo is Bissetti bamboo it does run in places I don't want it to sometimes but I just mow down the new shoots if they come up places I don't want them. I planted it 5 years ago and so far it's been pretty well behaved but that could change I guess. Also cut them down to make tomato stakes and to make winter protection frames to put plastic over, the back part of the cacti bed protection is being held up by a bamboo frame. Nice backyard Tim your protection looks better than mine. Mine is kinda sloppy, lol. Also love the snow on your yuccas. Here are some pics Mike of my gardens before the snow.

Beautiful pics...

BTW

Use the hotlink and you can post your pics direct.

Nice plants, Bruce! But it's kinda weird to put the monitor on a left side to see some pics better....

Hotlink??

Hotlink??

It's a shortcut (for HTML) that "embeds" the pic right into the post.

My Flickr site offers it, although there were some hiccups (with me) when their format changed.

Oh, ok so you still have to download pics to a secondary site first. Hassle

I use photobucket. drag and drop photo's from sd card to photobucket. copy html for each picture you wish to post. open a free account with photobucket. People dont like to open each postimage as it opens on a new tab each time.

Yea, I have a photo bucket acct just don't want to create a separate album each time I want to post more than 3/4 pics so just try and keep pics to post from 1 to 4

Some club sites like this have photo support so you can simply post direct from computer to post instead of downloading to separate website. Would be nice.
