End of Day 3
The walk is completely down and the surrounding gardens are ready for compost/soil (almost...I had to give up on account of the ravenous mosquitoes).
Tomorrow the edging will go in, hopefully the sand filler will go down (everything has to be completely dry for this step and there's rain in the forecast), and the compost/soil will get dumped. That will conclude the work that our landscaper has to do. The planting and dirt spreading is on me; me and my plant wish-list are ready.
Also on the schedule for tomorrow, assuming we don't have any lightning, is the pressure washing of the house to get rid of algae and mildew (all that ugly stuff under the windows). The house faces north, and we are surrounded by trees so moss and other damp low-light dwellers do well here. The lift arrived today and Joerg has already gone up to do some tree pruning along the east side of the property. There's more to do, but he got a good start on it this evening.
Things are really shaping up.
