I popped on to see what's been going on with you and it looks like a lot!! Wow! So much progress!! It's been pretty windy here too. I've been on the scout for bags of leaves as well. lol. That Japanese garden looks fantastic. The one area I can say I need to improve on here is adding more flowers. We do have some but I want to at least double what we have next year. :) Everything is looking so wonderful over by you. :) Enjoy!!
