finally......

that finally isnt necessarily for long gap in blogging, but moreover for getting a backyard. we have gone a long 16 months with nothing but dirty dirt or muddy mud in the back. we are about half way through the installation of the backyard. this first blog is going to be the progression up to yesterday, and later will be the rest and completed backyard.

all of this started last monday, january 31, and has been progressing nicely.

here come the pictures.......



this here are the plans that we had made up for the backyard. we had to cut a lot of the details out of this to keep closer to budget, but this is still what the cement, patio, raised flower beds, etc are going to look like.....






















this is the water feature we picked out to have put in the raised flower bed.....












the rest of these are self explanatory. drains, sprinklers, electrical.











































this last picture is of a biplane that flew overhead.

well that is what pictures we have so far. as i am typing this the crew is putting out the forms for the cement. the cement should be poured on monday and the patio cover should be started soon after that. we probably have about another 10 to 14 days left until completion.
