Good Morning Spring Time

I have really been remiss in posting, my excuse is the number of home related project that occupy any free moment.

Now that 80 degrees has arrived in DC and with a new rake in hand, a few shrubs the plan is to prepare the yard for planting this weekend. This is all new and still pretty exciting. I've recently learned that DC has a rain barrel placement program to help mitigate run off by provide homeowner with free rain barrels. I'm game to have one placed if it fits without issue.

I still looking an plotting my strategy for a landscaping plan. The only thing I know today is that I will be planting some low grow junipers at the front yard retaining wall with expectation that the yellow grass will be replaced by low maintenance hardy evergreen plants.
