Landscaping

The weather is finally nice now (70 degrees today). It was a fine Fall day, down here in the South. Since neither of us are hunters, that pretty much meant that it was a nice day to do some yard projects. We concentrated on two items - lighting and a flowerbed around our mailbox. I would like to say that I helped immensely on the lighting project. My total involvement on that project pretty much entailed standing across the street after dark, looking back at the house, and helping KC adjust the lights. That's it - KC did the rest. My arms are tired just thinking about it. Actually, most of my time was spent on gardening. We had to remove a pretty large area of grass, smooth out the area, and then plant the flowers. The cable guy gave us a head start on the project - remember when we didn't have cable for a month because the boneheads forgot to run the cable under the driveway - well, when they finally put the cable in, they managed to rid us a lot of "unneccessary" grass near the mailbox. Actually, when I was pulling out the grass with the shovel, I almost cut through the cable - the boneheads only buried it an inch below the ground! Anyhow, the flowerbed looks nice, and KC did a spectacular job on the lighting.
