March 20021 Doug, Matt, Hugh, Tom and Josh are rebuilding the train and waterfall Garden. After many years the track bed was rotting and the waterfall had leaks and was overgrown. When it was cleaned out we found many beautiful things that had not been seen for years. The village is still under construction. Thanks to Save on Landscaping for the repair and cleaning of the waterfall.
After the HUGE oak tree in the bromeliad garden went down, we had to find a way to shade the plants. Thanks to Tom, Hugh, Josh, Joe and Bill we have some beautiful Pergola's. They are finally complete after several months of planning and building. March 2021
