Well, it's ok. It was a project I did for my Uncle (mostly with leftover materials).

Yes to the Hummingbirds.

Here's one from last year:

A Concord grape that's older than dirt. :lol:

You nailed it on the pergola, definitely not in the budget.

It was a bucks-down job, I had the pavers and the flagstone on hand and they already had the pond (I moved it).

The 'vine pergola' is still quite the focal point, and it's different. Very neat.

Looks really nice, Camino.

You do great work, I hope my summer project landscaping with my son turns out 1/2 as good as what you do.

While I can certainly appreciate & respect this kind of hard work,

esp. since I did landscaping throughout college as one of my

many part time jobs, I'm not motivated enough to ever do much

in this way for myself.

The only thing I plan on having in my my front yard once I own a

house is dandelions & a few scary Rat-Rods. The B-59 would be

the one to get garage space.

Looks good, HGTV + Camino = awesome landscape and car television show.

Sounds like a fun gig, want to be my agent? 8)

I want my future home to have nice landscaping like that. I don't want junk or weeds in it...I want it pretty.

I also want it to be set back away from the road with a line of trees obscuring the house and yard from street view. I've thought about this before :yes:

nice camino

When money flows green again in my river, I will definitely contact you about a patio job my wife is dying for. Well, that is if you want to drive over to NJ for however long it will take :lol:

Thanks for the confidence, Roger.

Well, if I ever hit the lottery, I'm hiring you for both the patio job and a restoration job on a '55-'56-'57 GMC pickup too :AH-HA_wink:

Camino, maybe you can answer this. I haven't really done yard work ina while, but I noticed today that in the garden where some flowers were there were hundreds of small winged insects f some kind on them. Is there some sort of pesticide I can use that's inexpensive?

Home Depot is closed so I can't check it out until tomorrow.

I don't mess with the pesticides - that's really a specialty in the industry.

That said, they are probably ants or termites (kings and queens) in a mating swarm.

I'd bet that they will be gone in a day or two.
