We've spent the last 18 months updating and renovating the inside of our house and the outside has been all but ignored. We have a beautiful covered patio in the back but we hardly sit out there because our view is dirt, weeds and a crumbling retaining wall. We love to entertain but when we do have people over the party rarely goes outside. As I've mentioned before, the reason we bought a house rather than a condo was for the outdoor space and now that the inside of our house is done (well it will never really be done to this DIYer) we figure it was time to put some love into the backyard. We met with several landscapers and settled on Angel from
Promised Path Landscape who really had a vision of what our yard could be. Construction started Wednesday of last week so here are some pictures progress so far. We are most excited for the lounge area with the fire pit! We should be ready for an evening of drinking Pinot Noir outside by the fire pit on October 15th (if there are no delays). The front yard is still all sorts of ugly, but we plan on having Angel come back to do that sometime next year.
