Record Heat

It must have been a record today, the last day of winter.  In the sun this afternoon it was in the low 80s, in the shade it was mid 70s.  Very still, and actually too hot to work in the middle of the afternoon.  So sunny, so dry, so warm.

4 yards of topsoil / compost mix was delivered today by Envirocycle.  I filled in the borders around the gravel garden, and Jim created a small ramp by filling a dip in the yard leading to the arched bridge across the creek bed.

The bridge looks awesome.  Just the perfect size, and aligned just right, it really finishes that end of the garden.  

I love it.

Right now it is bright cedar, but it will fade, and the dirt surrounding it is dark black, but will be grassed in as the sod covers it.

Just perfect.
