We love the two sets of stairs, it changes the look of the front and it also helps (or will help if it ever gets finished, ha) with traffic flow on the porch.

Building beds around the foundation, planting some new trees, and of course, clearing the area where I want the raised beds to go and then building them. I know I can't plant veggies now, but I can get the beds built this Fall and have them in place and ready for planting next Spring. I can't wait!!

Oh wait, there isn't a curb, ha. I'm not sure what kind of tree that is, down here we call them trash trees, its something that grew up there as a random sprout and became a tree. It's hard to tell in the picture but it's not very attractive and I will be cutting it down. I don't like cutting down trees, I'm a believer in keeping them if at all possible, but it's a little close to the house, it's in the way of the new stairs, and it sort of blocks the view from the porch. So it's coming down but never fear, I will replace it with something else, in a better spot. There are other nice trees out of camera range, so we have some trees in the front. I'll put something like maybe a Crepe Myrtle. Thanks for the kind words!1st Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04861609647607912193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-70565855420927087172011-10-10T12:05:42.111-05:002011-10-10T12:05:42.111-05:00How exciting!

Of course this is all just to get the inside livable now we have to work on the outside. I'm thinking now that cooler weather is more or less here, I might start on the working on the property in the next couple of weeks. If I'm going to have those long dreamed about gardens next Spring, I better start working on the infrastructure, ha. <br /><br />Pictures soon!!1st Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04861609647607912193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-50677046788094644982011-10-10T08:32:44.578-05:002011-10-10T08:32:44.578-05:00Cool - you must be very excited to finally be maki...Cool - you must be very excited to finally be making some (moving in) progress.
