The garden holds it's breath...

Scary things are happening... Aloes almost crushed by ladders...

 Plants a bit trampled, or covered

I wanted to redo that bed anyway?

 Scraping the paint off the deck means blue flecks are everywhere...

 The front garden hasn't been spared...

Good thing the roses got pruned last week?

Better to do this in February, I suppose. Next weekend, recovery can start and planting can resume. The crew has been very careful, which is appreciated!
