Porchblogging: Vegetative Edition

I've got a number of posts I want to write in the near future, but for now I will attempt to content the readership of this blog with some pictures of the backyard project.

Also, I have posted a rare (for this blog) picture of the Monkey himself.

I finished the walkway, amended the soil, and installed the sod. Then we slipped away for a nice Memorial Day weekend.

The sod looks great, but sometimes I miss the meditative, uniform, Zen garden-like quality of the brown mulch. I think I will especially miss it when I have to start mowing.
