Thank you! The sprinkler/drippers go on at 7:30 am and I go out and watch my little ‘water feature,’ coffee in hand.

Thank you! I liked that part too, because everyone chipped in with advice and suggestions. Before that I didn’t really have any direction. It was generously given,…by you all..

I have a small yard and I am dreamer too! But it is hard for me to do heavy job. I have some collection garden old buckets. I like to some thing u have in smaller way. Thanks for posting. I know I can use all those broken clay pots , alluminium buckets which I used it for composting now have rusted have no bottom 🙂 . I know I can make them heavenly in the garden. Thanks for posting which gives me some ideas.

Boy, you’ve done that! Keep us updated with photos as everything grows and fills in. Thanks for the posting as it was my way of relaxing today from this heat!

I really like the green/blue combo, as it is very soothing. Maybe consider some ornamental grasses too, pretty easy care and they grow tall and the seed heads and blow and rustle in the breeeze. I’d also put up a birdbath and a few brdhouses so your have some lovely birds to watch while you veg and meditate. Keep us posted (with photos) as it progresses!!

I love how you took us along for the redo by showing each step of the way. My back won’t allow this much lifting and digging any more so I was glad to watch and enjoy the transformation. Yes, one does need a comfortable chair with a back, safe steps, a nice view to enjoy but most important of all we need a pal by our side.

I love the ferns…I can just imagine sitting out there with my feet propped up, coffee and a book…
