Landscaping

I realized it has been awhile since I posted, things have definitely slowed down in the reno department, but work has definitely continued on the outside space. The grass is growing around the house, the deck is filling up with flowers and furniture, the veggie garden is thriving and our "north side" landscaping project is almost complete.

Our original plan was to create a stone patio on the only side of the house where we did not build deck, however we switched gears wanting to create a space for shrubs and perennials and we are glad we did. Other than adding some more greenery, setting the flag stone into the mulch a bit more and creating a flat surface with sand and grade correction for the hose and reel, we are done.

The old house has come a long way in a year.
