06-28-2011

I had a couple of comments today about my lack of  recent posting, and it just so happens that Rick started on the outdoor kitchen and part of the furniture was delivered today.  The coffee table and hall table will be delivered tomorrow. 

We've been working on some landscaping in the front yard area.  This has been quite challenging in the brutally hot and windy weather we've had all month.  It hit 111° on Saturday and 112° Sunday (both with wind).  It's been 105°+ many times in the past few weeks including one day with about 108° and 50+ mph winds.  The 3 large red oaks in the front yard are surviving somehow.  I've been putting in some grass plugs and have really increased the effort over the past few days.  We need to have the grass going within the next few weeks if there is any hope of covering the large area of blowing dirt in front before winter. 

I'll try to post a few more pics tomorrow.
