Remaking the Front Garden, Part 2

It's amazing what people with strong backs (and a jackhammer, and a sod cutter) can get done in just two days.

All of the grass is gone, for good. Today, they busted up the sidewalk, the front steps, and a big concrete slab that had been hiding under the front deck. It was loud. Things shook all day in the house!

This state of destruction is both distressing and exhilarating, because it's currently a mess, but will soon start to take shape in its new form.

Next up, I think: digging and potting all the plants. That should be interesting!
