I have plenty but most I don't even have photos of - as soon as I'm able to get on my feet I'll try to remember to grab the camera!

The first piece of "art" I ever owned - originally in my gardens in Maine but I hauled this all the way to Virginia when I moved! I call it a "cat" but the concrete artist, Bo Atkinson, calls them "Roos"?

It used to be in our front gardens, pictured here in the fall of 2000, but the shrubs around it grew so fast that it was disappearing - you can barely see it in the background.

About 5 years ago moved it down the driveway where I was developing new shade gardens in this area, now in a spot where it could easily be seen. I can't find a recent photo but in 2009 the plants were finally starting to fill in around it. I've since planted Hosta 'Spilt Milk' in front of the cat. Hilarious!
