I'll check out the gabion fences you mentioned whenever I'm in that area again.Shirleyhttp://rockoakdeer.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-83989701056242683212013-09-27T23:09:20.984-05:002013-09-27T23:09:20.984-05:00Hi, Shirley.

I'm glad to have found a local garden blogger.<br /><br />I helped a friend set-up at this past House to Home show...having considered making one during the last few years, I also admired the gabion wall. I suspect the pavers are temporary because rather than affixed to the wall they are only set atop it, which I discovered by leaning against it, haha...definitely recommend no pavers or securely attaching them.<br /><br />Next time you're on North St. Mary's, on Kendall St. behind Burger Boy, there's a converted house that has two small patios protected by gabion privacy fences...maybe 4 feet high and 8 inches thick. They look like tiny patio courtyards...pretty cool idea for garden rooms actually.<br /><br />Paulnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-71524857248233954032013-09-16T21:27:41.336-05:002013-09-16T21:27:41.336-05:00Wow, what special memories!

It's a tradition for us to have dinner at Los Patios with friends every anniversary, but we go other times too, visit the shops and stroll the grounds. I'm definitely planning lunch there on a Saturday next time they host the vintage sale!

When the Austin Grill restaurant built locations in the northeast they imported everything, including the construction workers, from Texas and you can imagine it was a real treat for homesick Texans!Shirley Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12734806779997587008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-81916601842816143242013-09-14T14:09:12.070-05:002013-09-14T14:09:12.070-05:00It's been so hot that any respite from the hea...It's been so hot that any respite from the heat is welcomed.Shirleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-22095417437456545622013-09-14T14:08:26.105-05:002013-09-14T14:08:26.105-05:00All the noise of the city just fades away as soon ...All the noise of the city just fades away as soon as you drive in.
