leaves?

No bunnies. Couple squirrels. Lots of gophers - they
like all the stuff I've been planting :)
Like I said, it's another story. When I originally
purchased my acreage the developer had a 'rural'
subdivision in mind (horses, llamas, farm houses,
etc). However, he died shortly thereafter and the new
developers decided to make create an 'exclusive'
subdivision of half million dollar estates. I can
'stretch' the CC&R's somewhat, but not like I was
originally planning....
