NEW PROJECT! Of course. I just can’t go one minute without a project that will break our backs. Rocks will be involved. In the next few weeks we are going to take out our front lawn. The main reason is I am sick and tired of having to mow the darn thing, but it is also not a wise thing to have a lawn when we have so many droughts in this area. Last time I think the drought lasted seven years. People with lawns in that time were really frowned at. I also want something that will be better for the bees, butterflies and birds. The Three B’s! We are going to keep the cost down by doing all of the work ourselves. What is really nice, is I have learned a lot from what we did in the backyard, as well as take inspiration from my next door neighbors. There yard is beautiful even in a drought. With this knowledge. it should go pretty smoothly with the plant selection. The main focal point is going to be a Japanese maple that we currently have in the corner of the yard. We are going to dig that up and bring it to the front. Then we are going to sit in lawn chairs and stare at the front yard for hours while we think about what we want next. It’s a very slow process.
