Going up the driveway on Ms. Dougie's side of the house, you get your first view of our oak tree (otherwise known as Alvin Oak). You can also see all the plants that I've stuffed into the carport because of a hail storm coming. The car under the cover is our son's 1956 Chevy Belair. It's become a lovely focal point, don't you think?! Brad pulled it into the center of the carport one day about two years ago with the intention of changing the brake lines. He put it up on the lifts and took all the wheels and brake lines off. Unfortunately, after it was completely immobile, he realized he didn't have a clue what he was doing. So, there it sits. Argh!!!
You can also see here that we're in the process of replacing the fence. We have one side left to go (flanking Ms. Dougie's yard). It's taking a lot longer to get this process done, and we have to go in sections because of the pool. We can't just tear it all down at one time, but can only take down what we can put up again in a day.
