i just put up the gate roof about 30mins ago but it started raining so i had to stop for the day. i'll just work on making the shingles for the roof while it's raining. Just taking it one day at a time. Thx

Brian,

Congratulations - that's a beautiful job. The area where you have the white or pale gravel also looks very promising.

But I'm puzzled. The fence seems to enclose a different area from the place where the white or pale colored gravel is. Am I right in thinking that the graveled area is going to be just the approach to your main garden?

Well As i do have a deck and a screened in porch I have done landscaping around just part of the deck which is to the left of the gate entry. The part i'm going to have to redesign on paper again is that about 10feet in front of the gate door is the septic system and the 5 drainage lines run in the middle of the yard so the design i had is all for nothing. I guess i'm going to have to shape and mold it around this. In the inside of the gate i can only put small shrubs and plants NO trees with long travelng roots. The gravel will continue into the back yard but the gate entry way will have some large tumbled flagstones. This is what it looked like just a year ago.
