Backyard Fountain

Raj and I have been working on the back yard all summer. We have done a lot back there, but it's slow going! We've been removing the walkway that has river rock on it. It takes quite along time to pull all of them up. We didn't want to just throw a way the rock, so we've decided to use the rock's in the flower beds sort of like a dry river bed. We got one bed finished yesterday, we even added a small fountain. Here are some pictures.

Before: What a mess!



After clearing it out, and laying down landscaping fabric:



The water fountain..we buried the cord in the ground inside a pvc pipe.



The finished bed:





We would like to add something at the top of the bed...maybe a large fountain grass...what do you think?
