Our walkway is in and we are so blessed. Thank you Jack and Randy!!!
Since the walkway was the one thing hindering my hankering to get the house landscaped, I have now been free  to ponder landscaping ideas.  I spent a little time today looking through landscaping books and magazines I have held on to for [...]
