carnage transformed

The last time you saw our backyard, it looked like this.


While I was getting operated on, hub was busy being general contractor [so to speak] and got the fence done.



The two guys he hired were fabulous and did all the work in less than a week. I'm super impressed, and now just have to wait a year for the wood to weather so we can stain it. A nice sky blue, I think. I'm starting to mentally choose fruit trees, fruiting shrubs and other things to soften the look and make it more lovely to hang around in, but for now, at least we don't live in an urban prairie with zero privacy.

More pics at Flickr. This post brought to you by the people who don't want to hear about health crap any more, and by Vasil, the nice Ukranian fence dude. :-)
