In Go the Planters
Finally, finally, our block planters are being built in the courtyard. They will at some point be covered with faux stone to match the front of the house, but at least we’ll be able to start using them soon! Click for photographic progress updated throughout the day:
Here is what it looked like a couple of weeks ago - with the block waiting to be used…
Today’s photos are taken through the dog nose/2 year old smeared windows which I am too lazy to clean, so ignore the dirty windows, ‘kay?
The mixer:
8:45 am
9:37 am (You can see Mike doing yard work in the background)
10:17 am
11:19 am (Mike is in the background of this one too)
The cutting area
12:02 pm
1:18 pm
2:01 (one down, one to go)
They stopped for the day around 4 pm and they’ll be back tomorrow morning to finish. Here’s what it looked like from outside after they left…
This is the beginning of the other planter…
And of course LG had to do her own inspection!
