The Garden

To say the previous owner was a tad eccentric would be be giving eccentrics a bad name! Over the years he’d made some pretty “interesting” sculptures in the garden using concrete, washing machines, parts of cars and fridges and anything else he found dumped at the roadside. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like it. Taking these down will have to wait until next year. I made a start back in September but it was heavy going and after 10 trips to the local dump with hardly a dent made to the train wreck called the garden, I quit. Figured I could use my time more wisely working on the interior of the house.

Trust me, the inside is something to see as well!

This will give you some idea of what I found after cutting back the brush and bindweed. It was like an Incan temple emerging from the jungle.

I think the original owner had plans for a few more too. This is what is tucked around the back of the house. Materials for the next project perhaps?
