Last Thursday, I casually mentioned to my husband that I wish we could get some beauty bark for the flower begs. His response "knock yourself out"! So...off he and our youngest went to football practice and I spread 10 yards of bark in about 5 hours. Whew! I looked liked I had rolled and played in it! I still have about 5 yards that I need to get delivered and spread, but the entire yard looks fantastic!
This morning is a beautiful, quiet, almost misty morning...yes, I can smell the hint of fall. I love to be outside early - even before my chickens are awake, although I can hear them in their coop thinking about getting up!


Sabrena, Olympia

How lovely. Good job. The pictures tell a story of how hard you work in your hard. Just beautiful.

Breathtaking... simply breathtaking! You have SUCH a beautiful yard and gardens, Sabrena! I'm sure that it has been quite a job to lay all that bark, but the results - OH!! FABULOUS!!! Kudos to you!! And good luck with that final five yards! Hugs - Nini

wow Sabrina...gorgeous yard, beauty bark and all! I am more a fan of good old "dirt" than Bark Mulch
but if you like it...that is all that matters. I can tell (like others have said) you love your yard
and working in it. You have that soul connection with nature and all growing things. Beautiful! Thanks
for sharing your hard work with the rest of us.

blessings,
peggy
