Started this project back in Sept. of last year. I really had no idea what I wanted to do or how I was going to do it but I set off on what is turning into a never ending battle against mother nature and lack of free time/motivation.
The photos are in chronological order and bring us up to this afternoon.
Minor Mishap
The only thing I hired anyone to do was the patio.
Left on the list for this year.
Re-do the drainage
Install new Fence along the “front” of the backyard
Hire Arrow to build a bar area on my deck
Get the grass to come in
Landscape around the patio
It may be hard to tell in the pics but the backyard is between 3 and 4 feet higher than it was when I bought the house just about a year ago.
It was a kids playhouse I guess but it never seemed to have anything in it so I just use it as a shed. I think I might try and sell it when I built my garage next year which is planned to house the 2 cars and yard stuff so that I can park my daily inside again.
Me myself and I. Rented various machines to assist. A track bobcat with a bucket and then a rake attachment was the best machine I used during the entire process.
