Look at the garden and our pine needle walkways! Cedar Run Landscapes sells pine needle mulch which Lauren and I took a shine to. There is cardboard underneath everything, so I don't expect too many weeds to come up through the walkways. It is looking almost like a garden... if only I could get something to grow ;)
Alex was here this weekend. He helped me trim the trees to give the garden a bit more light during the day. I think it will continue to be less than optimal with sunlight for the garden, but we'll see what happens over the summer.
Alex also started digging around the yard to see what is busted with the sprinkler system. It appears to have been sub-optimally built and further destroyed by the changes the previous owners did through remodeling the house and regrading the yard. The best option seems to be to redo the whole thing. I'm excited by the prospect of getting water directly to the beds through underground pipes and whatnot. This may take some time though... it is quite a mess.
