Since Blogger posts are read chronologically from top to bottom, please start at the BOTTOM of this page to see the progress from WINTER to SPRING at Gino's place. I deleted most of the older winter photos that never changed, and posted new photos of recent landscaping and renovation.

This seemed to be a year of renewal here, as I got a new Sears belt-drive garage door opener that is lots quieter than the 20-year old Genie one. This opener even has a battery back-up, so it can open the door even if the power is out. Note: posting inane stuff like this is the major thing people like (or hate) about blogs.
