A Funky Gazebo

 This sign on the Belmont village green tells the story of spring...

At my home the beavers added to our wetness by raising the water level of the pond, which in turn raised the water table and made it impossible to even walk on the lower lawn.

 We widened the lower entrance to our field and then laid crushed stone to make it passable.

Jeb was finally able to bring the large stones to the gazebo...

 I had been at the cottage, but Griff called to say Jeb had arrived so I raced home for the day...

Griffin painted the gazebo trim the dark purple I had used for the trim in my bedroom.

Jeb also redid the trench around the bottom and far side of the field. As he worked his way up the side of the field the puddles that had been on the grass disappeared. Things got a bit drier...

Jeb left a few stones behind. In the background is a wall of dirt from the trench he dug. We'll use it to help raise the level of the lower field, but that's a project for after the community garden tour...
