June 7 was the fourth and final day of the woodwork/fence build. L and V got right to work on the fence section at the back of the house. First, they hung the double gates. |

I understand that kids are going to make noise while they are outside playing. Run around, hoot and holler. I'm fine with that. However, what is with the bloodcurdling screaming? Unless someone is out there hacking off your limbs with a dull and rusty ax, shut the #$!%& up already! </old lady rant> |

Do you live somewhere that is desperate for rain? Seriously, invite me over to do yard work or anything else which involves being outdoors, and I guarantee it will be pouring within minutes. |

On Day 3 of woodwork for the Great Landscaping Project back in June, L finally had a work partner, V. The two of them made lots of progress. They started out by pouring concrete to set the posts for the pergola. |

Several years ago, we bought a half whiskey barrel to use as a planter. It served us well for a long time. However, now that the landscaping is complete, we don't really have a use for it as a planter any longer. Not wanting to put it in a landfill, we came up with an idea to re-purpose it: a patio pond! We bought a piece of pond liner on Saturday and started putting it together yesterday. |
