I'm a retired educator (teacher/principal) who moved from Northern California to Payson, Arizona in September, 2010.
This blog will chronicle my adventures as I explore a different ecosystem and build my new home.

West Yard Improvements


No rain or wind so the lattice got painted.


It will look nicer with plants around it.


Window boxes were painted as well. They are going to need extra support. The corbels are not going to be strong enough once dirt and plants are in the boxes.


Thirteen garden beds of various sizes. Randy has planted: peas, broccoli, onions, carrots, tomatoes, beets, radishes and cucumbers so far.


We had to redo all of the garden irrigation. We now have patio and garden zones. The dirt is all torn up and it feels like we are starting all over in the garden area. We are not sure what we are going to put down between the beds.....maybe just wood chips.


This is a bucket of lettuce. It's on rollers so we can roll it out of the sun. I am looking forward to lots of salads!
