    I come here for the legendary bassist, but Lee is such a warm, welcoming presence, I end up loving these non-musical videos just as much.

    Your property reflects your sense of art much the same way your music does. The very traits that your music has, your yard has. Color, movement, excitement, beauty, serenity, passion, hard work. I see it all in your yard, as I hear it in your music. Thank you for the guided tour.

      @@lelandsklar6363 Oh...I'm so sorry about the loss of Mr. Peabody and Chumley. They are all so precious and unique and when they leave they take a large part of our heart with them. I know our beloved pets are pure spirit and their spirit does survive bodily death so we will see them again. Knowing that gives us comfort that,

      I lived in Florida, and I had a neighbor with a garden full of camellias and gardenias upon which he lavished the same kind of attention Lee does on his lawn.... As long as I didn't touch his plants, I was allowed to enjoy his garden, and I did. (He didn't have any Fiberglas or concrete livestock, however....)

    First and foremost Lee, You have really made my day, as I thought I was the only eejit that cuts around with a pair of scissors! Hahaha In my humble opinion, nothing does a better job. Your lawn is beautiful. I love the boy's water feature drinking bowls. Our two boys have a large fresh water container to drink from, but they insist on drinking the water from the pond, which I'm just waiting for one of them to fall in, especially Gordon the Lhasa Apso. He outstretches that much, that he's literally balancing himself on his paw nails to reach the water. I'm surprised he hasn't fallen in a long time ago!! Your oranges look wonderful.
    Thank you so much for giving us a tour around your stunning garden. My very best to you and Maureen, and the boys, and I hope you are all safe and well. Blessings from Ireland

I wish I had a bit bigger a backyard for my 2 dogs to be able to run around like that... but they are content just the same and this video has inspired me to make my backyard as nice as possible! I have always wanted to have a weekly musical neighborhood evening, where we would gather just to sing and play together (Covid-19 permitting) and if I manage to improve the yard maybe that’s where it could happen!
