Our adventures in gardening are a never-ending story of doing and redoing, of trying things and fixing mistakes. Case in point: this sitting area. It's in a low area of the yard, and there are drip irrigation lines going to the trees on either side of and behind it. When the lines come on, water tends to collect on the paver bricks beneath the swing. It's more an aesthetic nuisance than gardening problem, as the water will eventually seep beneath the stones where the tree roots can take advantage of it, but Mike is redoing the brick area to raise the pavers a few inches.
This is also the site of my impatient overplanting of honeysuckle vine because the climbing roses weren't growing fast enough. Earlier this spring I dug the honeysuckle out and moved it to another location, which the roses seem to appreciate.
