This is what I did over the weekend. We were gifted with gorgeous weather that should continue through the week. The brick laying was one of the most difficult jobs we’ve ever done and neither of us are anxious to do it again. Finding a level area to work with in a very old, exisiting space is extremely difficult so we had to fudge it in places. It’s fine, we didn’t want a perfect look and like the welcoming feel of non-perfection. The wet spots in picture are simply areas where the sand has not dried yet. Against the fence is a kiwi vine that is fast growing and will spread over the fence this summer. The area is a southern exposure and gets blistering hot in the summer so the vines will help keep it somewhat cooler. Potatoes and onions were planted in the garden along with some climbing roses out front and today I’m going to enjoy some weeding, thinning of lettuce and just hanging outside. Mother nature always gives so much to me when I’m out there.
