Will and Daddy build a wall

Until recently, there was an ugly little patch of dirt next to our garage where weeds grew- no, they thrived and flourished. It was some kind of Weed Nature Preserve with an impressive variety of species. This week, Will and Rick have been building a retaining wall.
Measure twice. Cut once. Right?
Tomorrow Rick is going to lay some sod. We are going to transplant some daylillies from the front yard. It will be a little slice of grassy tranquility in the alley. I will admire it every day as I pull my car into the garage.

You speak the truth, Sister Martha!
