http://mybackyardoasis.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
One man's vision to change the barren landscape of his backyard into a beautiful, peaceful oasis. Monday, June 27, 2011. Lots of Posts Today.some of them may be redwood. I was originally going to get a shade sail. To cover the flagstone (that I have yet to install), but I've come up with something else even better. Trees and Operation Cool Shade. But I felt that I should share my tree knowledge with you. PS I know, I know.run-on sentences. Got it. I'll work on it. Labels: Operation Cool Shade. Here's why...

One man's vision to change the barren landscape of his backyard into a beautiful, peaceful oasis. Friday, July 1, 2011. Gravel Delivery from Sure Shot. Here are the pictures I promised oh so long ago. Enjoy! Hit that far corner! Overall, I'm pretty pleased with Sure Shot. I may have griped earlier about not having enough gravel, but now I think I should have enough, since a portion of my yard is going to be flagstoned or covered with a veggie bed or two or three. Check out the video here.

One man's vision to change the barren landscape of his backyard into a beautiful, peaceful oasis. Tuesday, July 5, 2011. If you will look back to my previous post about "Goals and Grills" you'll notice that I mentioned planting several herbs. My friend Daniel tells me that it's a reference to a Simon and Garfunkel song. Find the song and list it in the comments. Props to those who get it correct. Friday, July 1, 2011.

One man's vision to change the barren landscape of his backyard into a beautiful, peaceful oasis. Monday, June 27, 2011. Trees and Operation Cool Shade. My friend, Sharlet, posted a comment about how I need a hammock. She's right, and yes, I've thought of that, but I won't be able to have one until the trees I plant are strong enough to support me. I replied to her comment (only 2 weeks later! But I felt that I should share my tree knowledge with you. Labels: Operation Cool Shade. View my complete profile.

http://mybackyardoasis.blogspot.com/2011/06/gravel-delivery-today.html
One man's vision to change the barren landscape of his backyard into a beautiful, peaceful oasis. Saturday, June 25, 2011.

I'd rather pay than spend an entire weekend hauling 14 TONS OF GRAVEL to my backyard in a wheelbarrow rated to carry 300 lbs. per load (93-94 loads from the backyard. Definitely not my idea of fun.

My Backyard Oasis: Follow Up on Gravel
http://mybackyardoasis.blogspot.com/2011/06/follow-up-on-gravel.html
One man's vision to change the barren landscape of his backyard into a beautiful, peaceful oasis. Monday, June 27, 2011. Follow Up on Gravel. Well, the gravel was successfully delivered.
