Going, Going, Gone...






We had three large poplar trees taken down out of the back yard this past week. The roar of chain saws sent every 5 year old boy in the neighborhood to our house to watch the event. It was neat to watch the process, which took two days and left us with a Gargantua's amount of firewood. It's a little strange to see our backyard without the trees now, but all good things must come to an end. Now its on to grading, sprinklers and sod. I can fully appreciate why God created the 7th day! Making things beautiful is an amazing amount of work.

I really don't think that you need to do anything to your yard...it already look fabulous!! I think that the 'natural' look is really not used enough in our neighborhood!! Thanks again for the thoughtful gift!!
