Mike C's Blog (25) Six years latter...

Hello everyone,
I was on my computer late last night going through my photo files and came across some photos that I took just about six years ago the day we moved into our home. I have never considered gardening hard work because I enjoy doing it so much but looking at the photos taken six years ago I see that I sure put in a lot of work on our property.
Here are some before and after photos. You will notice a large round sand pit behind the house where the previous owner’s swimming pool once stood.
Happy Gardening !

What a difference a day, (sorry six years) makes! I'll be surprised if you didn't enjoy every minute of it.

You have certainly made a great improvement, Mike. Bet the time has passed really quickly too.

Thank you all for your comments. I wasn't thinking about a pond when I first started out. Amazingly though the small pond that I put in ended up just about in the middle where the sand pit was.
