Trimming Trees and Brick
Sunday, October 3rd, 2010 at 4:10 pm
My father-in-law, Scott, and I trimmed the trees and rhododendron bushes around the house today. Removing the huge rhododendron bushes from in front of the spare bedroom made a huge difference in the amount of light that filters into the room. We also pulled the brick away from the front stoop. In the process we discovered that the soil had settled about four inches below the brick. We also discovered a tiny amount of dryrot in the treated wood against the foundation. Not difficult to repair, but we will have to wait until it warms up before we can lay mortar. More to come.
