About 2 years ago, I was sick of looking at the gas meter on the side of our house.

Who wouldn’t be? It looks like a big silver sore thumb.

Jamie suggested plants. Pampas grass to be exact.

So we headed to the farmer’s market, and bought 3.

Here’s a shot of the corner of the house while we were painting the eaves chocolate-brown about 2 years ago.

Our 3 new Pampas grasses are between the gate and the down spout.

See the gas meter peeking out?

And here’s that same corner this week.

Good luck reading that meter now, Atmos gas company.

(Insert maniacal laugh here)

Mmmmooooo-AAahhhhhhaaaa
