When I got to the garden today the crew was just finishing up the Friday morning work party…trying to rid the garden of “invasives”…a thankless task…
and I checked the boxwoods…the severe pruning has begun…
but you can see from this view of the unpruned on the left, recently pruned on the right, that this will be the right thing to do…
and then the camellias are all in bloom…
…a quick check of the new tree…
and then I headed inside where the renovations are almost complete. The former living room has become the meeting room…
the dining rooms views remain the best in the house…
and upstairs, the room over the garage that was Lord and Schryver’s office will become the “library”/”archive” room…
and the carpet has been removed from the stairs…
A quick fond view…
and I was off. Next time: the removal of the front sidewalk…will the trees live??
Oops! You are way ahead of me. . .
