WOW that is gorgeous! And your view is spectacular too! I love the round planters with the retaining stones!

We had extra square pavers so we made the round areas, but we got carried away and had to buy another pallet of them.

Thanks so much for all your compliments. Yes those are sweet potato vines, I love the color and are they easy to grow. About the view, our backyard is the Chesapeake Bay. We were lucky enough to find this house before the real estate sales went crazy here. It had been on the market for a long time because it needed a lot of work (landscaping, new kitchen, new roof etc.) We are slowly getting it into shape.

I love your new patio, and I love your view even more. My dad used to live on Chesapeake Bay, he loved living there.

Gailo, you've done a wonderful job on your patio and it looks terrific! I love the view you have there! It must be an awesome feeling just sitting out there and taking it all in!

Galio, I'm 5 hours from Ocean City, MD!!! Just way out here in the west! I LOVE what you did with the patio, and what a view you have of the bay! I'd be sitting out there all day long on my laptop!
Glad you got in there before the real estate market went nuts!

Hey Loz, we are between St Michaels and Tilghman Island. So maybe you are 3 hours from us. If you are ever in the neighborhood.....give us a call

terrific job on the patio!
i have to agree, your view is spectacular!! i just love the eastern shore - any part of it!! we used to go to rock hall when i was a kid...my parents had bought some land...turned out to be a bust because the water table prevented building on the site. i still get down there on occassion...
congrats & lucky, lucky you for getting the property before the values got out of hand!!! you're in a really hot spot!!
