It seems that rocks and Robertsons go hand in hand, even now. As we've updated the gardens at Struan Farm and made them our own, we've kept some of the established rock gardens John's parents had made over the years, changed others, and taken some out entirely.
John and I laughed about this apparent family tradition as we worked together this past weekend, concreting the rock wall near the new parking space at the Homestead. We decided that other family members might have taken a more precise or artful approach to the project than we were. I had never used concrete before, so this was all new to me, and not sure I'll make a habit of it!
Next the grass behind the wall goes, and a garden of flowering shrubs goes in....I'm onto it.
