While many looked to the memorial day weekend to get away and have some R and R Kay and I decided to start a landscaping project. The front of the house has some shrubs that are pretty tall and boxed in with landscaping timbers. They are all more than 10 years old and it’s time to replace them. The landscaping timbers a somewhat rotted and the shrubs dominate the front at eye level so we decided to take them out and put in flower boxes. Originally it was just the small box next to the garage but as I was digging those out Kay started choping on the other five. Needless to say we were only able to get original three next to the garage pulled and almost finished the new flower bed box which will replace them.

You can see a few pics in this Filkr feed. Using the landscaping bricks in that small area is a real challenge. It’s been very difficult to keep them level with the driveway sloping away from the house. We still have a long way to go but with any in a luck in a few weeks it will be finished. But now that I think about it we are out of town the first two weekends in June and will have company the third weekend …. hum that throughs a wrench in things.
