Ok, so we finally got the driveway done and moved in. The final touch was some landscaping. And when I use the word "some" it's intentional. There were already over a dozen mature pecan trees around and near the road, there was the pond and then there were things like a crab apple, a grape vine and some miscellaneous dogwoods and oaks about the lot. But, to spruce things up, I decided to go for some evergreens around the base of the house, lots of grass to cover up the construction damage to the old grass and some blue juniper near the driveway entrance to give the driveway something.
Again, nothing major as you can see from the picts, ahh, but mother nature can be a cruel one. The plants were put in place as was the grass. The landscaper said, "water the grass" and so I tried (that's a LOT of grass to water.) They apparently did not water the juniper by the road as it died within 5 days. (Yes, we're having fun with the landscaper on that one.) We saved all the plants around the house, not sure yet what will happen with the grass.
