Fall 2005
It's been almost two years since we started our landscaping project. We've made quite a few changes and learned a lot in the past 23 months. We've added a garden shed, a slump stone wall between our yard and the neighbor's to the south, a hot tub and gazebo, planted more trees, and moved some plants around.

Spa with gazebo. We planted laurel cherry to act as a privacy screen around the area. Note: gazebo cover blew off during winter of 2006 and was replaced with a permanent cover. |
