BUMP!

I've been busy with a few projects but most of what we've been doing is concentrating on weeding, pruning shrubs and limbing up of trees in the gardens - let there be light! LOL We usually do some minor pruning/limbing every year but this year we purchased a new electric pole saw and we've already hauled off 7 trailer loads of branches and we've only just begun! I wish I had taken "before" pictures - the canopy is much higher now and with the brighter light the plants should be much happier :)

Our most recent project was this addition to the deck - a new pool! This wasn't a "planned" project but Rick couldn't resist :) He originally bought a 9'x15' pool and when we finally realized the perfect spot for us to take an afternoon dip would be the deck we ALSO realized we'd need to build a new deck to support it! LOL So we opted for a smaller pool and it just fits on the end of the deck :)
