Getting Ready Part II
We have been working in the yard in an attempt to beautify the outside of our house before my brother's visit next week. It is very slow going.
The first thing Mike tried to do was pretty up the backyard. Our backyard will someday have a concrete patio and an outdoor fire pit. What it won't have is the mountain of dirt that is currently there. Absolutely none of this will be completed by Andy's visit. And I'm pretty sure it won't even happen this year but we can dream. In the meantime, the least we can do is get the dead tree out of there.

The next thing we worked on was the front yard. We had a side walk put in but we needed to raise the dirt level to the height of the sidewalk. This was a good thing because as I have mentioned a few times previously we have a mountain of dirt to remove.

What else have we been doing? Well, we had to stop working to help this truck delivery man when he brought a delivery to our house. Stay tuned to find out more about what he delivered.

Thank goodness for that circular driveway. |
