In other, non-breakfast related news, we began working on the yard. We managed to lay out the design for the decking and pergolas. We also created the structure that will become the flower garden (with two chairs and a little table). Finally, we decided on a sitting area between the big walnut tree, and a plum tree. Next photo says it all.
The next photo illustrates the goofballs I had helping me today. Missed me by THAT much.
Tomorrow Renata and I will take the bus to Kutina, a nearby town, and register our driver's licenses with the local police. After that, we will be returning home and meeting a friend of Renata's mom who will rent us a sweet Volkswagon station wagon for the next 2 months for a mere pittance. Good times ! After that, we will be able to start collecting materials for the deck, pergolas, and gardens. Oh, and also have the ability to pick up people when they start landing in Europe for the wedding. Right. Almost forgot.
I hope everyone is well, and enjoying the photos. If someone would leave a comment (sigh) that would be great.
Cheers!
OK...I'll comment :-) I still don't know about eating chicken that were raised in someone's backyard! The layout of the yard looks great! Can't wait to get there and try some of those Crunchy Pillows...though I am sure that "Froot Loops" would make them laugh for minutes too!
ReplyDeleteMiss you guys...keep well...Boomer says "woof".

Hey! Great post. Gives us some perspective of where the festivities will be. We're still trying to get our minds around the exact orientation, so another shot from perhaps the top of a ladder on the roof would be good. We're sure the 'goofballs' would be happy to get up there and hold the ladder for you.
ReplyDeleteThe deck layout looks very nice. Just a suggestion, you might want to back the deck edge away from the fence a bit more so you can at least get a lawn mower behind it. Looking forward to more progress as construction continues.
Love to all. HK & SE
