GardenForums.com a friendly and growing community of gardeners.
We feature a Garden Discussion Forum and Garden Photo Gallery. It's a fun and friendly place to talk with other gardeners, ask questions, share you knowledge, view and post photos and more! Whether you're a master gardener, or brand new to the hobby, you'll find something of interest here.
Yes, they're working like they're supposed to. The other ones were not. It's really frustrating, this is version 4 of this program. It's commercial software, and while it's not hugely expensive, it costs a decent amount of money. Basic features like this should work.
btw, you will notice the images are now full size rather than thumbnails. Since most folks have decent connection speeds, I'm giving that a try.
No, this problem is definitely the software. They were there, several of us saw them. But I had to click on them. They should have been thumbnails. Then they went away. Did the same thing for Ron when he posted. Just another bug in this new version...
Bob turned that tab option off so you will need to use Go Advanced and upload the old way!
LOL! I can still see the second posting when I go back , but not the first set.
Ok I will go advanced and try that.
thanks Bob and Ron. Glad to be the tester

New project pictures
Monday's work views.
Here are a few pictures in the last week just for an idea of the mess I am living with.
I tried to put an arrow in the picture but I can't figure it out on this computer. Anyway if you look at the picture facing the house , you can see "batter boards" set up . ( looks like 2 boards up and down with a board across the top) that top board will be the finish grade of the yard and the retaining wall will be where the boards are. We still need about 5-7 loads of dirt. All the plants up against the deck I will move today. that was my butterfly garden We may get paver frontage on the underpinning of the deck, but it is so expensive I am having issues with that.
The other pic is of the pump house slab being poured. the front yard and drive have not changed yet but this week is a big week for changes.
Oh and yes....all work and no play makes Nancie a sad girl so I took time out to fish

all of this action took place yesterday! Oh my! Today we have about 10 loads of fill coming. Lysle will spread it with the bobcat and hope the back yard, except for the dock, will be done by Monday. Well not done, we still have the fire pit to finish.

Bob,
I like attaching picture that way better. Instead of a link they come up as pictures. I think the reason I could see the others is because they are on my computer? Anyway you fixed me

You're awesome. Thanks for fixing me and the pic posting. I really like the way the new version attaches. Thanks for keeping us up to date with new software. I knopw some of us are creatures of habit and we have issues adjusting to new programs, but I can see the improvements
Ron,
Thanks! We have waited a very long time to do this work. As you will see in the next group of pictures, the wall was a necessity not a whim. They had a tough time with the tide coming in , but they did a super job. We hired a company that does commercial work on roadways and bridges and it was well worth the extra money. I am getting tired of all the mess but I know it will be just a memory one day

Yesterday was a big day! Maybe by Christmas we will have our yard back.
A couple views of the dock , one from the river looking at the house and one looking at the river.
The wall truned out awesome. We brought in 14 loads of dirt yesterday to fill the yard and will get about 14 more today. No wonder we had fish in the yard!

Very nice dock!!!!
I can see why you built the wall and are raising the ground around the house!
It is an amazing amount of work in a relatively short time!
When it is all done it will look like it was always that way!!!

Thanks Guys! I feel like it will never get done. We actually started in Oct. this year and now it's Dec. We had to do something about the rising water levels. It was actually washing the dirt away from the foundation of the house. When we first built here the water was about 150 feet from the house. Now it is always about 60 feet away and on full moons or Noreasters it is at the back door. We got lucky with DEP ( Dept. of Environmental Protection) usually they won't let you fill any wetlands, but because our house has been here so long they can't deny us the ability to protect our house. It is a major expense but then so would be losing our house Kind of a catch 22.
The wall was really fast. They came in with a crew of about 13 and knocked it out in one day! What a bunch of hard working guys.
Ron
I hope it looks more natural when we are done.
John
Now I am jealous. What a beautiful place.
PS The trip is about the journey not the destination

My camera is acting up!i can't take pictures. It keeps telling me there is no lense attached. Guess I need to have it worked on.
But wow what a major ordeal. My house has become a tourist attraction LOL in this very small neighborhood ( large area wise but not many people) we are the excitment. Neighbors we don't even know just come to watch. Lets just hope we don't attract zoning.........Right now there are 7 work trucks , 2 dump trucks, a bobcat, 13 men , a dumpster and 8 pallets of pavers on the street in front of my house! Good thing we live at the dead end of the road. This looks bad for safety. I the back yard is a mini hoe to fix Tim's bo-bo with the wal and several men. our project has morphed to include a back yard fire pitand they are bringing in crush crete from the street with the bobcat..... another 5 days of work.
Boy I never dreamed this would happen all from wanting to fix the drive way. They brought it up another 2 feet which means a retaining wall next to the drive to keep the tide from washing it out. All the little things they didn't tell us.

That's the way it goes with any reconstruction Nancie!
You want it done the right way so you won't have to redo any part of it later on once the problems pop up!!
We all want to cut corners but.......you know what happens when we do that!!
Nosey neighbors is all part of the excitement of changes!

Lynn,
Thanks. It is really major. I never dreamed it would be like this. Tim keeps changing his mind about things. I am trying to find one of my old cameras to try to take pictures. It is just unreal to me the changes that have taken place.
Ron,
You arre spot on. I wish it was done. They promised by Christmas eve as we have an annual event we hold and I really don't want a construction mess. Sure don't want to cut corners as I know from experience that is never good.
I can't wait to share pictures with you guys. I guess I have to send my Sony in for a refurb as it keeps telling me there is no lense attached
