During the past few weeks, we have been very busy here in our yard. We are completing a new wood shed, still trying to clean up Hurricane Katrina trees in the woods, and kick off our new landscaping project (That is my project!) . School and band is putting a major hold onto my part. As I said, the landscaping project is mine.
I am just mainly going to talk about my project...if that is OK with you all. During the past several days, I have been taking pictures, looking on the Internet, reading books, and all kinds of stuff to give me ideas on this project. It is going to take place in the back yard where the flower beds were heavily damaged by Katrina. The Azalea bushes and flowers are all dead and I can't stand to look at. My and my friend, "Jane" (for blogging purposes), are always sharing ideas, tips, and anything we know about yards and flowers. Well, I love to work with flowers and yard work. I have my plans all set and the demolition will be underway soon. As of right now, we have been through the gigantic back flowerbed with the tractor and have done some major cleaning.
It is a lot of work but I guarantee it will pay off. Next, I am going in there with marking tape and flag all the things I want out. Then daddy and Will are going to go in with the chainsaw and whatever else will be needed. Then that is where I come in. Then I am working my way to the garage side of the house. Right now we have our winter wood supply in the carport with a tarp on the side. We built this house in 1989---enclosed carports were not popular on brick homes. We plan to take all the tarp off, either extend the car port into a two-story garage or just buy a portable carport and add on the side. The options are endless but we will see. We just don't know yet.
Looks like I won't be bored this summer....:))
