Don't Fence Me In

The house we moved from had 3.5 acres and we backed up to wonderful nothingness.  Hedy and I could go for walks, she could leap to her little hearts content and it was relatively quiet.  Now we are on the corner of the main street coming into our area and I think we are on about 3/4 of an acre (although it could be more).  So needless to say, the space has been a challenge, not to mention all of the stinking holes the yard left us to contend with.

There were so many holes and so much damage to the "land" around the house we had to have dirt brought in to try and level it out, which led to Stephan having to build a retaining wall.


The Great Wall of Bloomfield

Stephan is getting ready for the concrete folks to come out so we can build the sidewalks, patio and the retaining wall to make sure when I am BBQ'ing I don't do some sort of concrete/dirt surfing into Hedy's area!  Isn't he a nice guy to think of that!

Treasure
Of course, all of that digging did produce wonderful treasures!  Like this big ass tire that he found buried!  Isn't that special????   I keep telling him we are going to find something dead one of these days!
