Home and garden projects

Re: Home and garden projects
I recently purchased a house and have my hands full with several projects.
The garden has this rather ugly green slab in one corner. We already have a covered patio area, and don't need to put up a shed.
Anyone have any ideas with what once could do with this area? ....

I cleared a lot of the leaves off the lawns, front and rear, today. If it stays dry I can get the rest next week, and then probably squeeze in a final mow for the year. Most years I haven't mowed after October, and usually only once in October. This year it has stayed mild, and rained a lot!

Can you get free wood chips from your town recycling station? If you dug it up you could cover the area with wood chips or use them to fill in around pots (we find nice ones for a song at yard sales) or raised beds for flowers or herbs and veg.

Half the garden actually is wood chips right now, and FIL who loves on the other side hates them. I'm ambivalent.

And then tell your insurance company about it so they can increase your premium. Insurance companies do not like trampolines, and routinely exclude liability for injuries caused by trampolines. ...... I am also inclined to think that placing a trampoline on a concrete slab is an especially bad idea.

Trampolines have nets around them and having them on a concrete slab will mean they aren't wobbly at all, so not sure what your problem is with that one.

BTW It's taken me a while but now I really like the hot-tub. It's not much bother either. I've just put a "tarp" over ours since the leaves are falling, but I just test the water every day and add acid to lower pH or household bleach to keep chlorine levels optimum
