Front Yard Update

Today’s subject: the little strip of land between the garage, and our neighbor’s property.

When we last visited this area (December 2007) things were not looking good:

Seven months later, the grass had started to grow back, but the area was still a mess:

The plan: path leading from driveway to the garage door (side door) and garbage can area, surrounded with pretty planting beds:

Progress: edged the lawn, cleared the path, relocated healthy lawn to giant dead spot, and prepared planting beds:

Left to do:

- build small wall to hide garbage cans

- create path (bricks? pavers?)

- replace garage door (side door)

- replace outside light (after painting house)

- repair the rest of the front lawn (after removing a few stumps)
