Inaugeration of our new fire pit, etc.

Though we aren't done with landscaping the backyard, we tested our new firepit and got rid of some junk while we were at it:

When she wasn't making sure that 'killer ladder' burned out of harms way, Jeanne was busy filling the crevasses between the rocks Paul had positioned with moss and other plants - We don't know what type of orchid this is, but are looking forward to seeing it bloom.
