First let me give you some background on the story.
When my Honey built my garden with the very nice gate with a trellis on either side I was delighted. It so happened at that time, I had thrown an old front door mat on the ground near the garden, so I would remember to take it to the dumpster later on. Well I looked at the entrance into the garden, looked at the mat and decided as a joke, to place it in front of the gate and tell everyone they had to wipe their feet before entering Keewee's Garden. Yes I know I have a wacky sense of humor.
Anyhow, last Friday as I came home from work and drove under the carport, I glanced across at my garden and said "what the heck", or something like that. I jumped out of the car and went to investigate. There on the ground, just in front of my mat, were two lovely pieces of sod. Instantly I knew where they had come from, they were put there by our landscaper friend, obviously leftovers from a job. I could not stop laughing.

We are so lucky to have friends who have such a great sense of humor.
I knew I had to share this story with you, but could not come up with a caption, so have decided to let my readers do that. There is no prize for the best caption, just the glory of having yours chosen and a link to your blog.

Clean those feet before seeing the beets!

Please visit my blog post Where In the World is Bilbo? I am having a little blogging adventure. Thanks
Where's the rest of the lawn?
The grass is greener on the other side.
Keep off the Grass! They do look neat and tidy there.
I love this story KeeWee but think of a caption? Yikes... Becca's is pretty catchy. :)
You have just made me feel much, much better. I have a door mat just inside my garden gate too. I just like it. I thought I was the only one.
Leave dirt and grass at the gate!
Wipe off your feet before stepping on my mat!
No grass permitted inside!
I love it! How about 'Friendship Matt'!
In life, remember that "The grass isn't always greener on the other side!".
It's the green carpet to an "Oscar" Winning vegetable garden :O)

Fun photo. Some pictures don't require captions, and this might be one of them...though if hard pressed I might come up with something like, "Muchas grassias [i.e., gracias] for visiting"...
Roll your own
How funny. I am drawing a blank on good captions, but this made me smile.
