patio progress

Hey! Check out my front yard! Or, rather, my front dirt pit!

Is it just me, or does the pink garden hose look like a reeeeeeally big earthworm?




Here's the bobcat I was talking about, sitting next to the sand for the patio. Rrowr!





And here's the french drain for the gutters. We're being good neighbors and routing the lady-next-door's downspout into this, too. Go, us!





Here's the view of the road from our little townhouse...it's the first time ever that we've been able to see it, now that the euonymous bush is gone. Deer throughout the park are sobbing at its senseless demise...


Come to think of it, I'm not sure how I feel about the neighbors being able to see us....they might think we're social or something...




The landscapers are coming back for day two today....sod, shrubs and PATIO! I may just be able to have a glass of wine al fresco this evening...
