Boyd dropped off some plants Saturday afternoon two weeks ago. I spent the rest of the weekend planting them. They're all good-sized so we won't have to wait for them to "grow up" before they look nice. We're just planting along the wall for now. We want to keep the foundation and areas around the house clear until the exterior work is done.
They guys are making good progress. All the soffit and fascia is done - all that's left are some final touches on the porch. They've removed the old combination storms and begun on the windows, then we'll get the mason in for tuck pointing. After that we can install the foundation plantings.
As you can tell, the grass is a bit thin. The guys used an area for work space and this has been a really dry spring. Now that they are done needing the yard as a work space, I can overseed and sprinkle with fewer limitations. The little bit of rain we've had recently has helped.
Additional Note:
All the posts up to this point have been about past events. Now that I'm caught up, the entries will occur in more-or-less real-time. Also, the pace of entries will slow a bit to perhaps once a week (unless there is something interesting that warrants more frequent posts).
