Garden Update

We've finished the first part of the back yard renovation project, so here are some updated pictures, starting with the front yard.

Front Yard Looking Good
The back yard is looking great, too, with the new stone path leading out toward the back fence.

The New Stone Path
Cindy's new raised beds with their protective anti-varmint shields have now been planted.



The decomposed granite, (DG) makes everything look better throughout the yards.

Old and New Raised Beds
The new planting area behind the garage has some plants and some seeds started.

The birds seem to like the feeders and birdbath, considering how often they empty the feeders.

And, of course, there are still future projects to do, like the area on the northwest side, where we plan to take out the Eugenia stumps, tear out the boxwood hedge, construct another retaining wall similar to the one out behind the fence, and add some terraced steps down toward the canyon.

Future Project
One thing we know for sure--there will always plenty of projects to do.
