      These are a sample of our gardens. We brought in 1,000 yards of fill which was 100 dump trucks and built a mountain in our back yard. We then put in trees that were high enough to block our neighbors view. We put in a waterfall and 3,000 gallon pond complete with Japanese Koi. This yard occupies a great deal of my time but I am certifiable anyway. The men in the white coats are coming to get me as we speak. My wife looks at the yard and she stays away. Terry Newton

 This is when the project was brand new eight years ago. I just laid down 27 yards of mulch so our weeds will stay down. I also have to divide perennials this year as some need to be spread elsewhere. Loads of work.  This is what it looks like last Summer.   I hope you enjoy the pictures. Terry Newton

Oh Terry, I love them. I am a huge gardener too. Nothing's more therapeutic than playing in the dirt.
Now, my husband's version would be, nothing's more therapeutic than cooking in the kitchen. And now that spring is here, his version is, nothing's better than fishing all day. Thanks for sharing, Cindy

Holy cow Terry!
If I had that for my backyard, I would NEVER leave the house! I wish I had the talent & green thumb to do that with my yard. Can we borrow you if we ever close on our house in Florida?!? LOL Karin
