On summer mornings, I walk early. Sun filters through shade trees and the humid air is soft. A light breeze stirs as I circle the neighborhood enjoying the assortment of landscaping styles. In Minneapolis, the boulevard next to the street is often the focus for self-expression.

Tidy mown boulevards are uncommon

With native plants, nature takes its course

An offering of gentle inspiration

When it comes to gardens, more is more


Lost the plot—sometimes the vision gives way to busy reality

Bone box—a welcoming community

Nature put it there and Nature can take it away (because I’m not gonna)

Fostering connection

Be how you are

Thx for sharing. Made me more aware of the blvds in my hood, many of which I pass with barely a notice.
I take a lot of early morning walks and have really noticed how varied the blvds are. Thanks for commenting 😁
Enjoyed this creativity!
Thank you!
Sweet! I picture your neighborhood and recall the walks we’ve taken there. The photos show just how interesting and welcoming the area is. Love it!
Lots of personality!
Cool neighborhood. I esp. like the bone box and water pail 🥰
Although we no longer have a dog, I really like the idea and the sense of community it inspires.
