Our beautiful back yard

A week or so ago we woke our deck and yard up from it's winter sleep, and cleaned all of the furniture and refurnished the deck! It looks wonderful - we love sitting out here and enjoying the flowers and the sounds of the fountains. It's a bonus when the sun is shining, but we love it even when it's not!

Note the lazy susan on the picnic table that Geoff made! It looks like a little deck, and turns quite nicely. Works great for snacks or condiments, when you have people around the table. Thanks, Geoff!

The chaise lounges are inviting! They have little tables underneath that pull out and hold a glass of wine - or whatever! : )

Swing, glider and chairs, with the vines in the background.

The adirondack chairs in the corner are one of our favorite places to sit and enjoy the yard.
For those of you who remember the yard in it's natural state, it's been quite a journey, and a very rewarding one! We have one thing left to do, aside from maintenance, and that's have rock put down in the area behind the deck, as it's just dirt. We hope to get that done in June, and then the back yard will be DONE! Whooo hooooo!

Glad to see it ready for the summer. Send some of the summer sun our way! We're hoping to introduce Brannockstown to the fine art of barbeque very soon...
