In the late 80's

When I first moved to this house, my kids were young and my son was interested in building things... here is his 'fort' and a view of what the yard looked like at that time.


Time went on and we planted and tended the gardens and lo and behold things grew, stairs got built and trees were planted - the smaller and cheaper the better, at that time when money was in short supply.

Today we are trimming like mad to keep it under control! The 2nd photo is part of the area of the top one. The raccoon is just a little bonus of having nature so close!
