Photos From Higher Up - Roof

I'm able to get on the flat part of the roof for a different perspective. Above shows the new garden area, termed Pete for thew time being. Lot's of room here for ??

Roughed up pressure treated 6 x 6 garden and extra parking area completed about a week ago. It's a tight fit but ideal for a compact car. Makes turning around much easier now. I didn't consider the size when planning. But oh well, mountain terrain was never made to be simple or easy.


In the next one, I thought the creek would stand out better in the background.

This one shows how the wood chip trails disappear into the woods.


And on the southwest side; area near the stone bench. Now you get an idea of the lawn browning I've complained about.

I have certainly been doing some updates recently. Hopefully I can keep it up. Now and then there comes a time when I don't have the desire to. Quite frankly I thought I was running out of things to do around here until gardening became an interest.

The property has so much diversity to work with, specifically the east side of the cabin on the other side of Pete. There's an area that holds quite a bit of rain and spring water runoff that should prove interesting to play around with.

Here's a pic from last winter showing the area. Well, uhm...it must be on the desktop that's been giving me problems. Maybe when I get that bugger looked at. Incidentally the other laptop is repaired. Headed into town to pick that up. Perhaps many pics dating back to 2007?

Not so.
