Backyard Improvements

     Today Mom, Ellen, and I went to Grandma's house to help her transplant some hostas; however, Ellen and I ended up digging up and moving paving stones.  About 30 years ago, Grandma got them for free, thinking she could use them to make a patio; but she never has.  Instead, the pavers which once were sitting above ground have sunk into the ground overtime. 

  

    We decided that they would be an excellent boarder for the patio.

Mom calculated that there are roughly 130 paving stones in the boarder and plant stands.  

And there are still more!!  

In the end, it was hard work but an excellent start to landscaping Grandma's yard.  We made very good progress in only an hour and a half, and the backyard looks much better.  But we'll certainly be over again sometime to continue the project. 😊

A large nightcrawler was disturbed with one of the hostas; and, of course, Ellen had to take a selfie with it!
