Middle of May: The northwest corner gets the treatment

Middle of June: Landscaping in progress along the road north of the house. I started a low stone wall there as well but it is not visible in these pics. The rock pile to the south of the big rock has to be remade into a proper wall also. At least all the stones are there already.

The long view

23 June: Frog Pond, in progress for the first 6 images, all done in 5 hours on June 23rd and the rest, mostly landscaping, by July 1st. It is stocked with irises, water lilies, cattails and duckweed. A few frogs took up residence almost immediately. It is my favorite spot now and the cats like it too.

June 26: Sheila Foster completed a watercolor portrait of Foxy. It is 10¾" x 8 ¾". This was in exchange for building her website. I couldn't get a decent shot of the two kittens together.

July 6: You can see in the back there the triangular patterned glass window John put in the top ofthe outhouse last year.
