Some Minor Landscaping

I was outside this morning mowing the lawn, which is already becoming not very fun with my push mower.

I remember back in the day, my cousin Joey told me he was moving into a condo. He said it was good because he didn’t have to do any maintenance. I said, “Don’t you like doing that stuff? I sure do.” Boy oh boy, I guess I wasn’t thinking clearly. I mean, I like planting things and gardening a whole lot. I even like looking at the grass after it’s mowed. I just don’t like the feeling of me being strangled by my sweaty shirt during the actual mowing.

Oh well. So here are some fun photos. The first one was taken last year about this time. It’s the end of our driveway heading down towards the entrance to the basement. That side of the house had a pretty low grade so people could drive down there. Ask me why…I have no idea. Also, there was too much of the basement wall exposed and the sight of it gave me heartburn. I remember finishing up our nightly walks coming back to look at that side of the house…terrible. The next photo was taken today.

Ahhh, I love before and after shots.
