The Estate of Things

I like dags. Brad Pitt likes dags.

This is my boy Lex enjoying the NC mountain life.

This is Betsy’s patchouli-laced Newfoundland Pollock, his friends call him Pocket.

I discovered Deborah’s beautiful corgis Howard and Milo on her blog Dirt Simple. I’m not sure what part of Dirt Simple is my favorite, her Sunday musings, the images of her work, her landscape design advice or explanations about the design process. Can you tell I’m hooked!?!  Deborah is a veteran landscape designer, offering a wealth of great images of some of the projects she has worked on.  I only wish I lived closer to Detroit so I could go to Deborah’s retail spot Detroit Garden Works.  You can also visit Deborah at her website to view her beautiful portfolio and if you’re so lucky, to hire her to transform your outdoor space. I’m pretty sure this won’t be the last time you’ll hear me talk about Deborah.

P.S. My Mom and I started researching long-haired corgis, do I really need more pet hair to vacuum?
