And On We Go
Here are a few photos of the progress in the front of the house. I didn't take "before" photos so just picture a dozen or so hawthorn bushes that were not doing particularly well. I believe we have had so many plant problems because this house was built on rock -- yes, rock -- and topsoil was brought in for landscaping purposes but it isn't all that deep and I think it just can't sustain all the big bushes and such that people have put in.
