Backyard landscape reno (MODEM BURNER!!!)

I've just finished a big clean-up of the back yard. After 12 years living here it was due for a change up

So, the first problem was the cedar hedge that'd gotten really woody after years of trimming. Time to go:



Now its cut down, time for the 22 stumps



A 3 1/2 ton floor jack comes in handy





Next, the chain link fence and posts





I'm pretty sure they crashed 2 cement trucks here and just stuck the post in the wreckage. The yellow is an air line from my compressor in the garage attached to my air chisel. It was the world's smallest jackhammer that day.






Time to pressure wash and stain the back fence





and do a bit of moving





The post hole crew, easier to have them drill the holes and set the posts



Now we can get going with the next phase of this job. I love building fences, especially when we're working with cedar.










Old landscape timbers 'R Us. My poor old Focus wagon thought it was a dump truck during this reno





Now that's all cleaned up, we can get going on the flower beds

























So, its done and now we just have to wait for the perennials to fill in.......
