Rock wall landscaping

All those leaf jumping videos show off our new rock wall. Now you can see the before and after shots. On the side of our garage was a disintegrating railroad tie retaining wall, right in the path to the swing set. And we were looking to create an extra parking space for when the boat is in the garage. The solution? A new retaining wall with steps that creates an extra parking spot as well.

Before: a view of the retaining wall

Before: The grassy edge that becomes the parking spot

Before: More of the unused area that becomes the parking spot

Before: The line marking where the retaining wall will go

After: The rock wall (and A LOT of leaves!)

After: More rock wall and the steps down to the swing set

After: Rock wall from the back of the house

After: The new parking spot

We love it!
