Well, it's been quite a while since I last posted. Let's see....I think I had returned from Kona, and it was snowing here in the Northwest. I've pretty much been staying around the house, trying to get my backyard "remodeled"....doing alot of prep work for new shrubbery. There was sod in the back, but because I have 2 small dogs, I never put anything on the grass for weed control....needless to say, it all eventually went to pot (weed)....uh.....you know what I mean!
The sod has thin nylon netting in it that prevents me from rototilling, so I have to manually dig it all up, screen out the dead sod and dirt clods, then get ready to put in the greenery. While all this is going on in the back, the front yard is holding it's own very nicely...one of the Rhoddy bushes has "popped". The second one will start to display color soon, and the Lilac tree in front of the porch has already begun to bloom! My favorite pasttime is sitting on the front porch in the evening and just soaking in the quiet beauty....
