My blank canvas
Laying the first part of the wall
This is the bed that I dug up for the garden.  It was never a very nice part of the yard.
Here is the first section of the wall that I built
Where the pond will go
Adding a ring of limestone for drainage
I had to re-direct a lot of lines for the underground sprinkler.  They weren't very far underground and had to be buried.  They were just placed inside the bed.  That's me on the stairs wondering why it doesn't look the pictures  in Garden Railways We placed a layer of limestone rocks around the wall for drainage.  It's worked very well.
Added extensions to my sewer pipes to faciltate filling in dirt
Adding the fill
Those two large white pipes are extensions I added to the sewer pipes to raise them up to the level of where the 'mountain' would go.  When I finshed the grade, I cut them of and added caps to the ends.
