Address Sign Installed

The custom address sign finally was ready at SPJ Lighting in South El Monte. So I went down, picked it up and installed it in the raised garden bed next to the portico. Looks good.

Day 36

Antonio, Tom and Eladio came this morning to install the craftsman-style lantern and landscape lights. The lantern is the perfect compliment for the portico. And the landscape lights add interest to the new planting beds and rock columns. Very nice.

Day 35

8:26 am...Antonio and crew arrived with more fencing materials to complete the iron fence. Lynne and I did some more crack filling and prep on the portico woodwork over the weekend. We will put up a coat of primer in the next couple of days. We also bought the plants for the garden planting beds between the columns. We will have compost and planting mix delivered this week.

Day 34

8 am...Antonio and crew continue work on the iron fence. Other than the dogs getting out during the day all went well. There is just one more piece of fence to install and then work at the existing gate.

Day 33

7:15 am...Antonio and crew plot out the fence line and bolt in the posts.

Day 32

8 am...Horizon crew arrives. Today is the day for the iron fence to go up behind the rock columns.

Day 31

7 am...Horizon Landscaping is here in force. Tom and Antonio discuss putting in the electrical conduit for the hanging lantern and how the iron fence will be anchored and work into the existing fence and gates. The new step will be acid washed as well as the landing and existing pavers.
