Back In Florida: House Update


We flew back to Florida today for a long weekend in the warm weather.  The weather is awesome--not a cloud in the sky and high temperatures in the mid-80s.  

The above photo is what our Florida house looked like when we bought it last year.  Since then, we have been working on fixing it up.  Today is the first time we saw the results of our new entry.  We had the walkway redone and a railing put on the porch.  We also had to have the roof painted, and of course, we previously had the house painted.  In addition, we had the yard redone with new trees and all the old plantings removed.  This trip, we are hiring a landscaper to put in new plants in all the beds.  It is a work in progress, but we are loving how it is turning out. 

We had the broken and loose tile walkway removed.

We're working on getting plants for the flowerbeds.
