Uncovering the Past

In late July, Becky's parents came to visit for the weekend, with no intent on having a lazy, relaxing weekend. While Becky and Mom Franklin were out at a weaving class, Sam and Dad Franklin did some extreme pruning.
See the before picture.
Now check out the after shot: The mass of ivy is gone, and during their archaeological dig, they found stone steps up to the unearthed flagstone patio. Amazing!

It was great that the Franklins could share their expertise on what exactly is living in the yard, and to know what to do with it all. We look forward to having them back!!!
