TODAYS PROJECT START TO FINISH

 

It’s a long weekend for us  here in Canada as it is a civic holiday on Monday but Papa took yesterday off as well so he has 4 days off WHOOHOO ! So ya know he will be building some kind of project this weekend and that he has !

Papa and I wanted to shade the birds water fountain in the centre garden cause it is always getting the sun all day directly on it . So today Papa built a Pergola over the fountain , it wont shade it completely but it is better then in the baking sun for the entire day !

                                              Papa calls it the Birdie Pergola !

    What a great job he's done !
    I love pergolas, especially if they are laden with wisteria vines, or roses, which add more shelter from the elements.
    It's just beautiful.

    I can't believe he just whipped that lovely pergola up. It is just awesome and I'm sure the birds would thank him if they could.

    Marrying a man who can build and repair is a gift from Heaven. Looks like your guy is a keeper!

    That pergola is delightful!
