So summer is almost over... has anyone here done any outdoor landscape projects you want to show off?

I changed the exterior and outdoor layout at the house to open up the yard by closing off the current enterance, moved some schrubs on the right to the old enterance to make a new bank, then make a smaller road on that bank out to the alternate road a bit farther down and give it more crub appeal... and put up a ranch style fence.

0.00 to 0.28 and 9.30 to 10.00

1.00 to 1.25

Here is what it looked like back in 2007:

Pic 1: Sketched plans to re-do the road (and add a walk around deck with a gazebo).

Pic 2: Filled in the old driveway, moved schrubs to the new bank, opened up the yard.

Pic 3: Opened the new driveway on the property boundary, erected a ranch style fence (that will be painted white) with 10ft posts (3ft in-ground) and 10ft boards spaced 1ft apart.

Looks nice.... how long did it take to complete?

I count 3 Supervisors, 1 Photographer and 1 Employee.

It turned out to be a nice cool breezy day so we put up 30 more feet of fence.
