For those of you who may be interested in the yard, here are a couple photos of the flower beds I have been weeding. The former owner was a wonderful gardener and has left me with lovely perenial plants and masses of bulbs. The beds had been neglected for a few years but the soil had been so well ammended that the weeds were not too difficult to pull out. That said, it still is a lot of bending and pulling and I'm not half finished yet! The flowering shrub is a beautiful flowering quince of a coral/pink shade.
In this bed, as in most of them, you can just see the reddish stems of peonies coming up.
Here is the view from the kitchen door.
Back to plumbing, here Jake has put in the Pex hot and cold water lines in the downstairs bath. The Pex is made out of flexable plastic pipe.
Here in the below photo is the cast iron drain pipe going down the wall from the upstairs bath. The cast iron will act as a sound dampener as water that is falling vertically is louder than water flowing horizontally.
