Here are a few photos to keep you up to date:

… about whether the yard would look better.

Here it is graded, seeded and covered with straw. Had a little rain.
Maybe the grass will grow.

You can start to see some of the features of the building – garage door openings, windows and the porch at the office.

(In case you don’t know what the layout looks like, you can see it here.)
