Let's plant one tree over Memorial Day weekend... 6/08


Famous "last words"...


Unfortunately I didn't take a before photo. But imagine the area outside the screening filled with 6 30 foot sea grapes. We took them down with the help of a chainsaw and various other tools. Then spent a few days taking out the stumps. Makes it sound easy... but add in some heat and humidity, dirt and roots, not to mention dragging and bagging and bundling.

The area is a little bare with exposed fence, but with Bird of Paradise trees going in and undecided to plant in the space between it should be long term beauty.

We are slowly making this house ours. Each project is taking time and effort, but we are putting our stamp here.
