Landscaping progress...

I haven't updated for quite some time and so we have some significant progress to show...

  • Our front yard now has it's rock mulch installed
  • Our side path is completed
  • the narrow garden on the north fence beside the patio is finished
  • the vegie garden is done;
  • we've solved a drainage problem along the back fence; and
  • we now have a clothesline.


So enough words and onto the pictures...

The front yard has gone from this...

There's still a long way to go... and eventually I want to be able to remove the 'dog-keep-out' fences from around the vegie garden and the back fence strip but it's so good to see some progress!!! And I must admit that getting out there watering in the mornings inspires me to do more.

  1. it looks great! And I don't know why but I just felt so happy for you when I read you had a clothesline...weird!

  2. Thanks Jeana! Yes having a clothesline is great - clothes dry so much quicker in the sun than the dryer. I can't wait to fill the line up with some lovely hand-dyed fabrics someday soon rather than boring clothes and linen... :)
