Nope! In fact, Gary went and marked two "lines of sight" on either side of the lot ... in between those two lines is where our view is from any window in the house. No trees get planted there ... just a big, open, natural meadow with lots of wild flowers. We plant the trees on the other sides of the lines.

>But I would make sure to put up a big fountain or two adorned with unclad women. That's just me. I'm not much of a landscaper.<

LOL! Neither are we (that's what you hire landscapers for) ... but, I think I'll nix the idea of the unclad women on the fountain ... good thing Gary doesn't hang out here on the UT ... he doesn't need you to be giving him such ideas!!! <g>
