I can feel it in the air....

Summer, its around the corner I can feel it, I can see it.  Warmer days and warm evenings make for the thoughts of gardening; getting out and planting or the planning of planting.  This year we are building a retaining wall of sorts in the backyard.  We have a huge flower bed that was orginal to the house with lovely plants of all sizes.  Of course the dogs love it and run through trampling it down.  And in the heat of the day they find a lovely spot to sit. 
Peter has been busy designing a raised bed with stones.  This weekend would be a great time to get out there and start digging.  The bricks arrive this Thursday, so something has to happen.  How exciting. This is an idea of what it should look like when done.  Doesn't it look beautiful.  Forget the house though, it doesn't quite look like mine.
