New landscaping.

Hello everyone,
Well, while the contractors are hard at work on the house and......................................like I mentioned before, tearing up the meadow with all the "BIG" trucks, we are hard at work changing the landscaping around the perimeter so when they are done we can repair the meadow with new grass.
We still have tons to do, all along the creek front needs to be cleared and we want to build a big fire pit and picnic area down there.
Then we will move up hill and landscape all around the house.
Here are a few pictures of some new grass coming in around the newly landscaped tree areas on the road side of the meadow.
We tore everything up and had bare dirt and now we're trying to get the grass to take hold before the rain comes and makes a big mess out of all the dirt we exposed.


East Evans Creek Road is just beyond the trees to the left and Evans Creek is at the end to the right of this picture and goes under the road.


This is the same angle as the picture above just farther away, the creek is straight ahead.


Same one, don't know why we have so many of this one angle.The grass is still very young and thin in places but coming along nicely.Same angle, the road is to the far left and the creek is straight ahead.

Hey, a different one. A little blurry but taken from the street side and looking out into part of the meadow. The grandchildren call this grandma's park.

AMAZING! We saw the plants around the trees when we were down last, but the grass makes it look completely different. It's beautiful (even more than it already was) Nice work!
And, that is a tall wall! It was hard to tell how tall it was in the other pictures. Having Dad stand by it clears up that question.
