I wanted to start out with an update on the garden. The zucchini is starting to bloom and I think that is a good sign!! Everything is getting so big, it is time to build something to for the tomatoes...they are getting so big and need support!! Yippee.
Friday evening, Heath and Layne went to Home Depot for another load of retaining wall bricks. I think that makes 50 or 5 trips, it has been a lot. He had dug out the steps that will be the center of the retaining wall and so he began building the steps Friday evening and then Saturday.
Heath, after his haircut, moving some bricks!!
The hosta garden is on the south side of our house and is completely shaded. I got all of these hosta from my mom and look forward to watching them grow.
The steps!!
A view from the top. All the extra stuff, like the slate, we had in our yard from previous things that others had done. It is nice to find a place to use the extra stuff.
I don't know what percentage of the yard is done, but this is what is next!! Poor Heath, I know he is so tired of moving all this dirt and bricks but I appreciate it so much. I have already spent more time in our back yard this summer!! Thanks Heath.
Sunday morning, at 4:00am, Heath left for Wisconsin. That is where the High Performance Championships are this year and he will be there for 9 days. Since Heath was gone, I decided to not work in the yard and spend some time with Layne. We ventured to Manitou Springs. It is very busy there this time of year...everyone is on vacation and this is a very touristy place. We walked around and visited all the stores,that Layne liked, got rained on a bit...it was nice to get out. Then spend a quiet evening at home, it was great but.....
We miss you Heath!!
