Home Improvement

Summer is losing its grip after a hotter than usual July and August, and hubby and I have spent the past couple of days tending to our much neglected landscaping.  Our backfence neighbors have taken down a walnut tree that was growing into our fence which has inspired us to pressure wash the fence and do some pruning and garden cleanup.


Our new and improved view and clean fence!
Now if only I could get Blogger to cooperate and put the pictures and text where I want them, I would be a very happy camper!

    Whatever makes you think Blogger would desire to cooperate with a mere mortal. You'll have to be angelic and then some (whose the angel --michael? -- with all the power? -- that's who you have to become.).

    Anyway, your fence and garden look very good. But the tree wasn't really leaning on the fence -- yet. The one we took down this summer had basically pushed our fence over. We had it propped back up with some two-by-fours, but it wasn't going to stay there long.

    I like the pleasant (banboo?) additions to the top of the fence, too; your gardens are tidy and handsome. By this time of the year, most of Portland has given up on tidy gardens and everything is a bit tattered and tired. Maybe I should go out and prune a bit. Maybe....
