Home Projects II

Derek got to do the outside projects. He wanted to remove all the rocks from the edge of the yard (he deemed them a safetly hazard). With a little of my help he built a new retaining wall on the back side of the garden. Then a small new border on the front of the garden. We brought in what seemed like tons of gravel to provide support for the new walls, and to level out our brick path. Then in came 5 yards of topsoil. This year we should have a bumper crop of everything!

A special shout out for Clark--he helped Derek move most of the dirt while I took care of the girls. But I did take a few wheelbarrowfuls myself :)

Nice! It looks so clean and manicured now.
