March 20, 2010 - Backyard Oasis Constructions Starts!

The backyard oasis is underway! Our goal is to get the fence up, rip out the outdoor chimney/fireplace, remove all debris and slightly grade hill, rip out the back of the garage that was an addition (it is falling over), and install a two tier retaining wall on the hill. All the work, except the fence, will be done by me. Here are some video's and pictures. We'll do a side by side once some progress on the hill is done.

Below please find a 360' Video of the backyard, as it is today:

If you were to turn around looking at the above photo, this is the rear. The fence will go into this hill which is going to be changed into a retaining wall.


Fence will have a 16 foot section behind the garage
