Beautiful Yard

Dick hired some guys to help (almost) finish the front yard. There was a lot of lifting and shoveling and wheelbarrowing and cementing - and I was glad he didn't try to do it all himself.

The block for the fountain is cemented and the liner is in place. You can almost see how the dirt is mounded against the back of the cement blocks. It will give a really nice slope to the front yard once we get the sod installed (after spring vacation).He also put a walkway from the side street to the front walk. I'm not all that crazy about the gravel (don't tell Dick) but it's DONE - and if it doesn't grow on me, we can always do something else later. I'm still amazed at how different it looks from when we started construction a year and a half ago. Nice.
