YARD WORK

We have been working on improving our yard for quite some time. The person that we bought the house from had invested a lot of money into the curbside appeal. Unfortunately, when the house did not sell as quickly as he had hoped, he let everything go. The yard was a wreck when we moved in, but we saw a lot of potential to it. A patio here, a garden there....and well....a yard was born. The most relaxing, tranquil evening is spent hanging out back with nothing but a glass of wine and the beautiful landscape. I am still working on getting Jen and Doug to see what I see. They like having a nice yard, but I don't think they see it the same way as I do. Here are some before and after pictures. Mom and Dad came up for a week and spent A LOT of time helping us with this. Dad refused to leave until the garden was built. They too should take a lot of pride in this. It would not look this great without their help. Thanks Mom and Dad, and I expect you to visit soon to spend and evening with me.
