Backyard Forecasting...

We have a lot of plans for our tiny backyard this summer.  First we have some debt to pay off and some necessities to buy - but we are very much looking forward to transforming our space into a little ghetto oasis.

Here are a few photos that inspired us.

Here is our current backyard space.  It's roughly 20x16 feet.  I took the 2nd photo as a number of photos and then created a composite.

And here is my kooky drawing of the projected changes:

The blue is where we would build a couch.  We're still arguing about how much of this will be green space.  I'd like a little more, Matt would like what is pictured here.  The biggest issue is removing the concrete where we plant grass/plants etc.  That will be a gigantic undertaking (and expensive to rent the equipment). 

I'll keep you updated on our progress.  For now it is a dream - but we are project people so we do much better with a dream in front of us...
