Sawtooth house

Sawtooth House starting with the backyard

Almost done!

With the spreading of the landscape rock and contouring the ground around the saguaro in the front the landscape is done to this point. Anything beyond this point isn't even a thought to ponder at this time. A little more work on the inside of the house and then I will declare victory!

Landscape Rock

November 15/16, 2007
The landscapers started spreading the rock in the back of the house working toward the front. It took almost two days to wheelbarrow all this rock into place and the spread and level it. In the middle picture you can see a different color blending into the rock. That's the 1/4 no minus granite to eliminate mud when whet and dust when dry' It's about four inches thick and was 33 tons of the total 73 tons.

Landscape done

The landscape rock was spread over the entire yard. 73 tons plus two tons of dirt for a small mound in the front right side near the large saguaro. Pictures taken after sunset to avoid shadows.

Front landscape

This is the result of last weeks endeavors. We transplanted the two larger cactus and the two ocotillo's last Sunday and I planted the rest on Monday. Friday I brought the rock down and placed them around the yard. Hope it looks OK. Next step is to get the crushed stone to finish of the project. It should look a Little better with the stone.
