BIG Landscaping Update – Phase 2 Is Done And Our “Mistake” Is Finally Fixed!
I can’t tell you how happy I was to fix our own HUGE mistake – 1/3 of the sports court is now gone in favor of a lot of greenery, flagstone, picnic tables, and trees. We hired Dennis’ 7Dees to design and execute, and it went SO WELL. Started in February and done by late…
