Sunday yard progress.....

Staked out new beds

     Today we spent about six hours working on the hardscape in our landscape makeover. We staked out the future new raised beds (two rectangles and two squares) as well as started to put in the upper garden round. We used a few decorative gates we had to give us a visual marker of where the new trellises will go. It was a beautiful day for yard work.

     Now that we have some definitive plans there is much work to be done. Before the rains come this week I'll be pulling all the rock back from the fence line, pulling out all the pots and miscellaneous garden art and pulling out the brick rounds that were previously along the fence. I've attached a sketch in hopes you guys can see what our plans are. It's quite an undertaking and will require a lot of plants once completed. Of course, that's half the fun!
