Outdoors

Not all trails in Dallas are suitable for your furry friend. But these are.

Freshen things up with these cool season performers.

Let these beauties do their thing.

Time to get a jump on fall veggies.

I do a lot of travel for work during the summer months each year and while doing so I get the opportunity to see a lot of cool gardens; both private and public. A few weeks ago I was up in Baltimore for a conference and had the opportunity to tour a unique almost-off-the-grid private home. The homeowners wanted a new modern home, but didn't want to leave their beloved neighborhood. So they tore down their old house and built a new "green" home and landscape in its place. It's the sort of home and garden I'd love to see more of in Dallas.
