i am loving this weather. absolutely loving it. even tho there is a LOT of work to do inside, i'm taking advantage of the nice weather and spending more time outdoors. i've gotten some quotes a new roof, which will hopefully happen in the next month. yesterday i spent most of the day in the back yard with sydney, developing plans for the deck/patio/landscaping and just enjoying the free time. i had to rake up all the dead branches that had fallen into the yard, trying to get ready for preparing the spot for my garden. i've started the vegetable seeds indoors and they're ready to go outside as soon as the last frost passes... which is hopefully soon. after a hard day of work, ian helped with getting more of the chain link fence installed. last fall, i installed a 6ft tall privacy fence on the south side of the yard. there was an existing chain link fence on the north side. we're connecting the two with the new chain link:
its not too hard to do, just a little time consuming. we have one more small section to do, where the fence connects to the house, then install the gates. sydney will be able to run free! in the photo, you'll notice behind the fence is a 30x20 ft section left un-fenced. that is where the vegetable garden is going. that leaves a 30x60 section of fenced in yard. that should work... and once the landscaping/patio is finished.... it will be well worth the effort.
considering this is what the back yard looked like when i first bought the house, its looking pretty good :)
