We have been designing an area of our property for a workshop for Danny and a cottage garden for myself. The land has been cleared and the site prepped.
The builder arrived this afternoon to begin building and plans to finish in two days.
The cottage garden is a style of garden that evokes images, from the quaint garden but tends to be glorified, as if it stepped out of the pages of a fairy tale or a Thomas Kinkade painting. In reality, it will be a useful style of garden and will adapt to our lifestyle of simple but functional living.

My concept of the cottage garden is defined as a "small, humble dwelling with a place for the cultivation of flowers and vegetables. It would include gardens with a few flower beds throughout the yard, around a tree and a rectangular vegetable bed, plus a picket fence.
It is fun to visualize and create this project.
The area in front of Danny's workshop will be an entertainment area with a picnic table, wooden chairs and grill/barbeque pit. We look forward to the summer evenings, building a fire in the fire pit, grilling for dinner and sharing the days events with family and friends.
