Finished!

We're going to put the shed in this corner.

New landscaping coming soon.

The fence is in.  In the top picture, in the corner behind the fountain is going to be a new shed that Michael and I are going to build.  More storage!  We're working with PG&E to remove the pine tree.  Every year they have to come out and trim the tree away from the wires so I'm trying to get them to remove it for free persuading them that it's in their best interest to do this to save PG&E time and money.  I think we have a pretty good case, it's a high voltage line and connecting from pole to pole and goes through our neighbor's yards as well.  We're supposed to hear something by the end of next week.  Cannot wait! 

Once the tree is out, we can build our cute little shed.  Then the grass (with weeds) will be taken out and a low maintenance yard will be going in.  One with paths that lead all around the yard to various spots; fountain, hammock, tables and chairs, etc..  For the paths we're thinking of re-purposing our bricks from the patio and various areas around the yard along with some homemade mosaic stepping stones that I'll be making.  I love doing mosaics; birds, suns, flowers will be the focus I think and maybe a face or two or three.  I will show pictures as we progress with the tree, the shed, the yard, etc..
