Love the gate and fence. A gate has gotta look good doesn't it?It's the way in, so it's what visitors notice. I also have a "thing" about leaves blowing around a front door. We had a new fence put up this week.It has made the whole house look smarter. Feels like a new place! Now I am potting up succulents and cacti etc. Then colourful annuals. Our climate is quite mild so we eve have colour in Winter.

I love how you have redone your gate. Looks so nice. I just noticed too how you did your fence with one plain board and then the picket style board every other one. I like that look. I picked shelling peas and Sugar Pod peas today. Most of them aren't as long as they should be and I should have picked the Sugar Pod before they started developing peas inside. Will still eat them one way or another!!
