"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." ~ Walt Emerson
The new gate is up. The neighbors have all been over to check it out and have given their approval. There is still about 5 feet of open space on either side of it, which will soon (I hope, I hope!) have a five foot tall, large lattice type fence. By that I mean the lattice won't be the diamond shaped kind of stuff you can buy at Home Depot (not that there's anything wrong with that, we just wanted a different look). The wood in this lattice will be about 3 inchs wide and the holes in the lattice will be about 3 inches square. Hopefully you'll see what I mean SOON. And I'll have to get some photos at night. We put some lights out there and I have to say, I think it looks nice.
And in case you're wondering, technically this is not part of the front yard makeover we're planning. This is left over from the backyard project of last summer. Things don't always get done as fast as I'd like around here...
