Because Tater (the puggle) and Tigger (the tabby) don't like the sharp rocks but do like to sit on the garden bench, I decided to expand the river rock pathways.
Since stealing isn't such a great idea, I googled "river rock in Scottsdale." I found a great materials place a few miles away. We decided that we needed to cover 36' of ground.
A & A materials is a playground for boys--piles of rocks everywhere. We loaded the Rodeo with the perfect rocks--about 8" in diameter and as flat as we could find. When we weighed the vehicle, we found out that we loaded 1/2 ton of river rock. We looked like low riders as we drove away.
On Sunday morning, we unloaded, and I arranged the rocks so they looked good in form, shape and function.
We share the garden with other critters when the "boys" are looking the other way.
Everything is growing nicely. Flowers are popping on the tomato and pepper plants, and there are even several pea-sized peppers poking through.
Tater is hurt because you didn't take his picture and post it. Acutally, you did GOOD! Very pretty indeed! Anne
