There are now even computer games to sit down and design your landscape in your yard on your computer.
The programs are made to draw in your current house, deck, driveway, etc., and then design your flower beds around where you want them so you can see what they will look like.
You can visualize what you want, all at the tips of your fingertips.
If you don’t like what it looks like, erase it and draw it again. Landscaping and yard work can be fun and exciting all at the same time, and you are even working while you do it and don’t even realize it.
You can also look at yard work as exercise, raking, plowing, digging, planting, and walking around. You are burning calories while making your yard look great at the same time. So next time you need to work on your yard, look at it differently. It is much more exciting that way.
