A Path, A Path


I thought perhaps I'd alternate between Andrew posts and non-Andrew posts....here's the one I meant to post last night.

Last weekend D and her family started a remodel of the backyard. We still need plants for the dirt areas (obviously), and we'll also be doing some brickwork, but we're really happy with how the path turned out. These pictures were taken before the torrential rains we had yesterday, so the yard might look more like mud than dirt at this point.

I think once we add one shrubbery, the path will then call for yet-another-shrubbery....I'm all for pouring concrete and making better use of our newfound space. Somehow I suspect that I'll lose this argument.

  1. Katherine says, "That looks great!" I say, "The plain dirt is very minimalist and requires less care than plants."

  3. The yard looks great you guys - perhaps I can give you some tips from my Arizona "low maintenance yard" - white ground rock intermixed with some cactus??
