10 Things I'd love to have in my backyard. | elephant journal

Treehouse Porn.

Americans love to assuage boredom by spending money on our backyards. It?s a little silly, and selfish. But?I?m not immune: I?d like a basketball hoop. I?d like a koi pond. I?d like a buried custom hot tub. I?d like a chicken coop (only now, I?m veganboy). I?d like a pool. I?d like a mom-in-law house for, well my mom. I?d like a big old rusted wrought iron fence, but I?d still like a way for the deer to come on in and wander around, as they like to do (haven?t figured that one out, yet).

And, I?d like a treehouse.

Good thing I don?t yet have the dough fro all this silliness: better, I think, to keep things simple, and enjoy the great world outside of my home, more.
