Cedar Trees

A nice warm Sunday. Today, we went to visit some garden centres in town and discussed what kind of projects we need to do in the back & front yard. There is a list of things we want to do including building vegetable boxes, planting hedges, building a retaining wall in front of the entrance, planting fruit trees, weeding, mowing the lawn, re-doing the back yard gate etc....

Today, we started the hedges project. First things first. We need to get shrubs, not 7 or 8, but 23! We borrowed a friend's truck and went to the local store where they have the 7 ft cedar trees on sale for $15/each! It took us a while to load them in the truck as they are really heavy. We managed to put all 23 in the back of the truck and drove very slow home.

We will need to dig 23 big holes along the fence, so it will probably take a while to show the finished product...
