Big changes the Back Yard

Big changes in the Back Yard area this Summer


The first thing was to take out the lawn and replace it with a low maintenance version.   Including a practice Putting Green. Not up to the standards of a usual golf Course , but its fine for practice.
The next was to recover the 5 chairs of the patio set. not a big job, but needed to be done.
Dealing with Goffers is always fun (haha), so, we dug up the back flower bed put in wire and then weed barrier and redwood chips.  put all the flowers in pots, with the appropriate watering system.
There are 2 planting areas left to give the Goffer treatment to,  that's for next year!
The last was to clean up the shed. So in my usual fashion I couldn't make it easy.  Insulation-sheetrock-a real door-window and floor covering.    Of course had to empty the room before work could be done.   Sort out the contents and return only the required keepers.   That left room for, you guessed it, " a bed ".  The bed will help offset the loss of the motor home when it goes.
So now we're ready for our usual 4th of July Contingency. 


Here is the process of replacing the old with the new.
