Hardscape

We finished the paths using the salvaged rock. We didn't have enough to do the path from the driveway all the way to the side porch, so that will have to be a decorative gravel of some sort.

But we did finish the small entry path. I can't wait to have lavender and sage planted, blooming and softening the edges.

The path from the side porch...

Exhausting...

Hey Harriet said...

Looks great! As exhausting as it was I'm sure there's that real sense of satisfaction from doing it yourselves. Maybe...

Beautiful work! We have a similar path with stones leading to the front door. It is getting old and we need to redo it. You have inspired me!

That looks great! I hope you remembered to bend at the knees :)

Jon spent the day spraying brambles with weed killer.I hate to use chemicals but after 5 attempts to dig those brambles out, they were still coming back all over the place, so we lost hope of ever getting rid of them other than by weed killing them.

I think the lavendar will look so lovely. Georgous walkway. You have true talent. I could never imagine doing the things you are capable of doing. You must have rock solid biceps too.
