Today I added the courtyard out the front and adjusted the ground levels around the house and the retaining wall. Also added the basic outline of the back deck so that Steve can add the decking and Hayley can add joists and bearers. Future possibilities include creating my own balustrade. Progress is looking up. It is amazing how long these things can take, I have been here all day again. Today I have created the front brick fence and the screening in the north-east corner.
