big girl pants, bridge, pond, pond construction, rock dust, see what tomorrow brings, sod, soil, water not running

today I got home and was excited to see that more sod had been put down… to deal with the grass that was destroyed by the construction…

some of the items in the yard have been cleaned up from all the rock dust and… the bridge has been put down…

I didn’t walk over it just yet… want to be sure it is ready…

more soil has been arranged and I am looking forward to the landscaping…

the one sad thing is that the water isn’t running and I am missing the beautiful sound…

we shall see what tomorrow brings…
