I finished the yard work this morning by completing the flower bed expansion in the front yard and I am done planting. I put in an herb garden (mostly basil because we eat so much of it) and I finished the basket transplanting in the back. Note that the eaves and fascia is still sorely in need of repair. I guess I know what my next project is... I still have to put in veggies in the back and a basket to hang in the front and then there is the daily weeding and puttering that I do but that doesn't approach the effort that this weekend took. It's wild to see how much the place has changed in a couple short years (the "before" photo was taken in spring of '06). It will look even better once these plants and the lilac bush get some height. I still think a dogwood would look great out front but I ran out of landscaping budget so that will have to wait another year for that.

The yard work is "done" for the year

Wow, great improvement over the before photo. It's amazing how much time a garden can suck out of a day, isn't it?
