So here are some sneak peek photos of the new cedar benches. Zach has been working on these for the last few weekends and they really are starting to take shape! I was able to find rough cut cedar boards from a mill for about 1/5 of the price of the cedar at our local lumber stores and box stores ... and if you're in Vermont I'll be happy to give you their info. They were super nice and the price was definitely right.

I'm so excited to get these done. I'm already researching some great mosquito/bug repellant plants that smell GREAT for the planters! It's a little more modern than we expected, but I've got some great plans to spiff up our old patio furniture to match! And as a bonus, since our office it just off the porch, the whole room smells like cedar. Bar-b-que at our house when we're done?!
Did you got to Koenig's for the cedar? Looks great! Do you have a garden too or did the ground hogs get to it? I am ready for the BBQ any time! Miss you guys!
