New flower bed and Harvey the lawn ornament
Matt's Window boxes
Before we had 27 days of temperatures exceeding 100 degrees, the marigolds along the front of the fence were quite lovely.
Here's a Clampetts' eye view of my picket fence. Matt also broke up the existing sidewalk, which was falling apart, and laid the brick walkway. He's a winner. Coming next season...grass! At least, in a few places. Grass is a notorious water hog (unless you just let it turn brown), so it isn't the focus of our big plan for the yard. We also have plans to install two rain barrels on either side of the porch and a drip irrigation system --from our research, the least wasteful method of watering. Feeling inspired yet? I'm sure this is way more info than you really wanted, but you should know better than to ask a woman for pictures of her house. Or her children.

Who was the incredibly manly guy who put all that fence up????
Man, he must be hot.
The gothic style pickets and the alternation of picket height make it a very traditional style fence which looks perfect with the home. I like it!
