Yard Work

Friday and Saturday were beautiful, sunny Seattle days. To take advantage of the weather, we had 6 yards of compost delivered to our house on Friday and we spent Friday afternoon and Saturday, most of it, moving compost around, tilling, removing (thousands) of rocks and planting. It was great.

The neighbor boys assisted on Saturday and they were a huge help. Without them we would still be out there, working our tails off.

Here are a couple of pictures, pre-compost:



Here are post-compost pictures:



Stephanie worked real hard!

We planted some native huckleberries:

Hens and Chicks:

Last week we planted some rosemary:

and Sarcococca Ruscifolia plus a Mock Orange:

We have so much more to do, but we will take baby steps and eventually it will all be done. More on the landscaping soon!
