Add white bricks to the yard

As I wrote about a week ago about cleaning the yard. This week we decided to complete that task and add white bricks to separate the mulched area and grass area. Yesterday we went to Lowes and bought 18 white straight bricks and 4 curved white bricks and 4 square red tiles.

This morning with a help from a garden hand we were able to get our yard cleaning and mulching completed. He then laid the bricks between the black mulched area and the grass. The stubborn grass were rooted out and all the old pine straws were removed. We then put black colored tree mulch. We added 4 more bags of 2 cubic feet of mulch.

Now the yard looks better than last week and much better than two weeks earlier. We also added two rose plants.

This morning with a help from a gardener we were able to get our yard cleaned. The stubborn grass were rooted out and all the old pine straws were removed. We then put black colored tree mulch. We used about 8 bags of 2 cubic feet of mulch but we may need four more bags.

That is for another day.

Today evening we attended a function at Lincoln High School where more than 100 kids were given medals, letters, prizes, and citations for their academic achievements. VTS received one academic achievement medal. He felt he could have gotten one more but was close not enough to get the second one.
