The Ugly Houseling

Gonna miss this view but hubs is already making plans for the next backyard.

Next stop is Conservative amerikka’s most feared place–Dearborn, MI 😉. When I told house captain bitch that, she felt compelled to inform me that there was a time black people couldn’t even drive through Dearborn. Funny how one of the neighbors there introduced himself before we even made an offer on the house.

Getting invited to be in the neighborhood home and garden tour necessitated floor refinishing. Check out a few before, during, and after shots.

Nothing exciting happening here. Still waiting for the pergola to be built. In the meantime, here is a rolling table made from some of the pallets that the pond rocks were delivered on.

Pond viewing and chill.

Mostly done ☺ The little deck is hiding the sump pump.

The children.

Someone downsized their pond and gave us free koi 👍

Another in progress pond shot (water clarity finally achieved!) and a view of the patio from above. :) Hubs built all of the adirondaks except for the white ones.

Hubs remixed a pallet and made this!

Can you see the various ground cover planted in the rocks?

Hubs and the fam did work today.

Double waterfall!

Pup investigation for scale.

Bare bones pond.
