BTW, he's getting paid to move load after load of bricks and rocks every weekend, so this is both fun and profitable for Jason!
After several weekends, the rock wall and tunnel are starting to take shape. You can see the start of another wall behind the track to the left of my head. That's the back wall of the new raised bed. In the distance are a couple cinderblocks near what will be a hidden end wall. The entire area will be filled with soil. This is part of Sui's honeysuckle garden. The area in front of the rock wall will be filled with soil as well, for yet another big raised bed for Sui's gardening. Look down a few pictures to see what this looks like once all the brickwork is done and filled with dirt and plants.
A week later, the tunnel is built...
A view from the front...
The tree house is now sufficiently done so it provides a nice view of the garden railroad. The lattice will support Sui's honeysuckle garden once she puts the plants in. As you can see, the raised area is now filled with dirt, drip irrigation and flowers.
The kids putting in plants in the new bed. This section is known as "The Children's Garden."
