Pot samples for the pool.

Please let us  know if any of these are good for the pool.






Update on work and projects 3-17-2015

Replacing this planting with younger, smaller plants would improve the looks of the arbor.
The clematis vine should be left. It is spectacular in the fall.
2 x 40" plants and 6 x 36" plants would be used at each of the 2 ardors.
 The cost to do both arbors would be $2,200.00

If we  want to lower this hedge to the top of the wall this spring is the time to do it.

Pictured above are shout of the dog park area cleared and mulched.
There is a little grading which needs doing to correct water problem.
Joel Rice will be doing that work shortly.
We should be complete be Easter.
Fence contractor due here to price project tomorrow or Friday.

update 3-4-2015

Chestnut pool:

    The landscape plan for the pool has shown and the reaction favorable. The next set is to request
money to buy plant material for May 15 delivery .($6,300)

Garden:

    JR has requested the swing set be moved. I have shown Enrique the chosen spot, behind
the chicken pen.
     The raised bed which are presently where the swing set will go will be moved to the spot formerly occupied by the swings.
     The fire pit also needs to be move away from the pool, and will be relocated on a flat area
up the hill from its present  location.

Dog park:

      I have ordered the waste container for the park, and am getting bids for the fence ( flat black color, 4 foot height.
       Enrique will begin the clean up and removal of the existing wooden fence as soon as the weather
permits. Mulch for the banks will follow.
      I am going to suggest that the unused areas be planted with white pine seedlings. They will
reduce labor as they get larger as well as provide screening of CC from the road. The cost is nominal
.

Dog Park Estimate

Dog Park Estimate:

Total cost to install Chain Link Fence, 150 linear feet,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,$2,211.00
Average Cost/Foot......................................................................................... $    14.74

Total cost to gravel and grade road and 3 parking places..............................$4,000.00

Work priced by Joel Rice.

Joel says that the high price is due to the fact that the area where the parking would be is on top of the old saw dust pile and would require more time and material than a spot which was on native soil.

To reduce cost the car could  park  away from the park and walk in on a path.

Total cost to clean up and mulch park area..................labor........................$1600.00
                                                                    .................mulch.......................$  250.00
...................................
 cost of project......................................................................................$8,061.00
 2-14 JR wants parking out, and wooden fence gone                                    -$4,000 grade
                                                                                                   budget            $4061.00
