The bench would be a lot nicer with color to it. My dad was saying something about flying amy down to paint it.
I don't think i'd have enough patience to sit out in the hot sun to paint that huge thing, plus it's not too easy to move to somewhere cool.


Today my dad and I made a little border around the flower bed where the bench is, with the extra pavers from our path/pool patio. We have a bunch more and we're going to find something else to do with them.

Hopefully our next step is to extend our yard, the only issues with that are trying to see how we'd have more privacy. If we extend our yard into the side yard, our side yard has a slope to it going down. That means the fence would be lower and people could see over. We'd like to keep our backyard somewhat private. We either have to find some way to make the fence higher, or find a way to block view.

Luckily there's only one neighbor on that side of us and the road is a little side road, so it's not used much, so if a solution isn't found it shouldn't be too bad of a problem.
