This is the old stackade fence that was on the property when we bought the house. It runs along the front of the property where there were no plants, palms or flowers.
Bill has been working to remedy that, growing yucca and planting the robellini palms.
And after working all week (and waiting patiently) we finally got to take the fence down today! Yippee!
Will be listing this for sale this week! 56' of stockade fencing, 6' high.
This is our new view, giving a right proper tropical welcome to guests and owners alike!
It really opens up the front of the yard without too much exposure to the road.
There is still some landscaping work to do, but we ran out of steam working in the midday sun!
In between yard work, I finished up the skein of superwash in olive green, lime and teal. (Destined for a shawl, too, eventually.)
I quilted the first project for Millie-this blanket is 56" x 56".
I caught up with the mystery shawl and this shows work through clue #3. (TheWholeNineYarns LYS)
So, like any reasonable knitter, I cast on a plain sock while I wait for clue #4!
