Back yard makeover

After living in our house for over 6 years, we finally decided the back yard remodel was beyond what we were going to get done soon. So in May, we hired a crew to tear out the trees that were taking over, rip out the decaying railroad ties which were sliding down the hill and build some rock walls.

I didn't start taking pictures until it was already underway, but this was during the process of jungle removal.


The rocks await their wall.


The removed brush filled up our side yard up to the second story window. It took two dumptrucks and several trailer-loads to dispose of it.



The old slope, denuded.






The finished product, lawn & garden in September.
