Rock Paper Scissors

The title of this post is:

Rock ~ Paper ~ Scissors

You will see why in a minute.

Here are two pictures of my front landscaping.  We have been working on it this summer.  You saw me dig up sod and spread over 70 bags of mulch this summer.



It is looking really good!  It will fill in more next year.

Have you noticed that I have not shown many pictures of my backyard or back porch?  Well, it is not the prettiest of places. 

Sure the Potager looks good....but not much else.  Here are some pictures of  the way the back yard and back porch look right now.

See the stack of furniture on the left of the back porch?  That is my outdoor dining table and chairs.  It is too big for the porch. 

So here is where the ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS comes in.

ROCK

This is the rock we have picked out to become a outdoor dining patio.  It is going to go in our back yard between the two pine trees you see below.

In the picture above, you can see a group of chairs...somewhere near there will be a fire pit and gravel seating area.  This is where the PAPER comes in.

PAPER

This is a rough drawing (courtesy of Mr. Comforts of Home) of how the backyard will look.

And now for the SCISSORS part of this post.

SCISSORS

I am going to have to use scissors to trim the herbs and marigolds, so that when they lay gravel between the beds, the plants don't get hurt.

This is all taking place next Monday or Tuesday.  And we have been assured that the work will be done before my BLOGGER BRUNCH that is taking place on October 16th. 

By the way...we now have 15 bloggers coming to the brunch....anyone else out there want to come?  Email me!
