Our Backyard

These are some pictures of the progression of our yard. We have a small one that is just right for us right now. There are few problems however. The first was that we had a lawn but nothing to cut it with. To solve that problem we got an old push mower that is perfect for what we need. It was from one of Ang's coworkers (thanks Bob). Also we have a chain-link fence with a parking lot and dumpster right behind it. If you look past me in the fist picture you can see the nasty pile of garbage. In pics 3, 4, and 5 you can see that we planted some plants by the fence. These are honeysuckle and trumpet vine that we hope will give us a better view. The last pic is of me trying to tame our apricot tree. We didn't have the tools so I couldn't do much.




There hard to see but the plants are right along the fence line.

With the fun it looks like you're having... I almost want a garden... but then I'd need a gardener and a yard... so I guess I'll stick to looking at pictures of yours and you gardening!
