We put up the post and rail....yes, everyone here (including me--marisa) was needed for the process...

As you can see, the fence was removed from between the two yards and placed on the outer boundary of the yard facing the neighbor's yard.

We began working on the yard by clearing a path. Let me explain, as you may have noticed, there are several pieces of random stuff in the yard. Also, the branches of the trees have never been trimmed except in secret, because my mother was a tree in her past life. I forgot to post this picture last time:

The after picture also shows a sundry of tools collected for various projects throughout the years by my dad and Paulzie and me.

The rest of the pictures are of the other progress. Paul's done most of this as I have yucky icky work hours, and school during the week. He's done a great job. Take a look: We have gotten a lot working on the yard. We really appriciate our friends Hai, Marco, Nick, Sayward, Nichole, and Will for their continued help in this project.

I'm learning how to use this blogger maker, so I must apologize for my funky set-up, but at least you can see the progress.
