Maui Jungle Green home updates

Plans change. But still trying to be as green as possible.

Started the year doing more work on the driveway. Decided to dig out the upper side of the driveway, to make it wider, so we drive further away from the edge...


It gave me more big rocks to use around the yard.


I also turned the culvert ditch into a nicer area, with plants and weed block. I cut back some of the trees but will do more.


The cats got their old cat toy again for a couple days.


I made a plant table with scraps of wood.


Bought a swing bench for the hill


The hill gets pretty muddy and slippery with the rain sometimes, so I put in a walkway...


I also decided to put down weed cloth in several places. It is impossible to keep up with weeds, when you live in the tropics!

The picnic table was rotting a little, so I repaired the legs and put it in some concrete blocks to raise it up a little


Only once did we see cane smoke from the sugar cane fields, which they ended completely in 2016.


One of the poinsettas I planted is getting big! It was a throw away I found, from X-mas, a couple years previous.

Wood stove in and burning!
