Landcaping Complete…sort of.
So we’ve finally completed the landscaping of our home in Santa Clara, for the most part. And boy are we glad it’s over. The project as a whole was a big success, although I think most of it had to do with our tendency to get really involved. We can’t say enough good things about our landscape designer Alison at Botany of Design (www.botanyofdesign.com). She’s got a great eye for design and super easy to work with. I wish we could say the same about our installer LandGro, or as Jaimie says “LandSlo”. We’ve found an all to common trait among certain contractors that have apparently no understanding of customer service. And LandGro was no different. They’d show up for two days and then we wouldn’t hear from them for a week and half. Interestingly enough though when it came time to pay the bill we heard from them on quite a regular basis.
Overall though we’re very happy with the end result. Everyone who walks buy complements how it looks and after 5 years in the house we will finally be able to have guest out in the back yard.
Major Update
Well it’s been a while since I updated the site so this one will be a doozie. Hopefully I will make a better attempt to keep this updated more regularly. On the home front, we’ve pretty much finished the landscaping on the front and back yard so that’s good. Also Jaimie and I have started a more “eat locally” food kick. We’re trying our best to eat food produced less than 200 miles from our home in Santa Clara…more on that later.
