The Stone Pile

We met with our landscape guy and he drew up a great plan. There will be beds around the perimeter of the yard that mimic the lines of the home. The beds have stone borders and there are a couple of bluestone patios. The plans have been submitted to and approved by the HPC.

We've been doing some landscape prep work. Our landscapers are coming to do the hardscape and layout the edging/beds. To prepare, we've removed unwanted shrubs and trees, trimmed the ones that are remaining, killed the weeds and what little grass there was, removed hex pavers, and removed the chain link fence that served as a dog run.

The fence went from the foreground of this picture back to the double-trunked oak in the background and along the foreground edging to the corner of the carriage house on the left edge of the picture. Looks better already. We're still working on ideas for the pile of stone.
