Another project takes shape

Saturday morning John and his father rented a jack hammer to pulverize the cement pad in the back left corner of our yard.

Old photo, hence the maple tree and rose bush.

It was quick work for them and the only project that went off without a hitch.

I did nothing but watch them and think about things I could be doing that would be beneficial, instead I just soaked up the sun.
Makoa just went from shady spot to shady spot with his raw hide.

Half way through the cement pad John's brother showed up to help bringing a friend for Makoa. Makoa was thrilled to have another dog around and wouldn't leave Tantar's side. He also tried to get her to play, but with her being 9 years older than him it just wasn't going to happen.

Now the pad is all busted up, but we still have the big pile of rocks. John will probably take them to the dump next Friday.
You're probably thinking that that cement pad would have been perfect for a shed, but we'd rather put the shed on the side of the house instead of taking up valuable yard space. 

Next is working on the sprinkling system, something that I can and actually will help with.
