From One End

http://www.designer-landscapes.com/ CHECK IT OUT!

Here's the easternmost end of the dry creek bed. It's also the northern point. The photo was shot from the middle of the bed. Water from the road and across the street comes down thru the yard, now in the bed, and on into the creek that surfaces on our property and runs down to the river.
Our daylilies and hostas were transferred and other plants were added. Of course, very little is in bloom, yet, but we are certain next year at this time we will have had a colorful yard and everything will flourish once again only bigger and better!
By now you've figured out I'm not posting the before photos. You're all logical enough to know that they weren't as attractive.

I am extremely impressed. It looks like something out of a garden and landscaping magazine!
Everything looks so green!
Very, very nice. I'm thinking you'll get a lot of pleasure from this project. Always a work-in-progress. I was thinking of sending you photos of my project, but after seeing this, do not expect to see anything from down here. uf-da. The creek bed has a feeling of calmness about it, and the photo has that element of interest you spoke of recently.. wondering where does this lead?

Very impressive cuz!

I haven’t read anything about a name for the creek bed, but like all bodies of water, a name is required.

I have a nomination I’d like to offer.

Katie Creek (sorry if this leaves Ed out, but Eddie Creek ? Nope. Sorry Ed.)

Katie Creek just has that magical sound.

I like that.

OK, that’s it. We’ve decided. It’s Katie Creek.
