I take it personally when neighbors move! Don't leave me! (Except for the pharmacist's wife who always wanted to gossip about the other neighbors and thought she was a superior being. I planted toilet tanks in our corner garden facing her home in part to irritate her, and when I went in to wash my hands, I told my family that would clear her out. Was I surprised and delighted when she put a "for sale" sign in her yard a week later!)




I usually plant some annuals in the tanks, but I didn't get around to it this year.
