Garden Gate

In a post I did last week, I included a photo of the gate we have on the side of the house.  Several people asked to see what was on the other side of the gate, and also if it's something we use often.  Yes, we use it all the time when walking around the house.  I took some pictures to show you the rest of the story!

Here's the gate. Bob built this several years ago, and has worked hard on the landscaping around it.

Here's the walkway on the other side.  We call this hosta lane, because of all the hosta planted along the path.

Here's the end of the path, looking back at the gate.

The path ends at the back of the garage. Back here we have a raised garden bed and some other plants including this weigela which is blooming beautifully right now.

In other news, this is the back of the house. Last year Bob put in the patio and in the Fall the slider was installed.  This week materials are arriving for a deck. Bob's been busy getting everything ready to start it and we're looking forward to sitting on it!
