HDHD Episode 5: If you recall my last video – My Favorite Room (https://youtu.be/GCnDEaVx3qA) I found a wonderful spot for a peaceful, Zen garden, but it needs a good cleaning and a lot of vision. This is day one. Not much chat in this video. Mostly a lot of raking. LIke really a lot. It’s a bit of a high energy vibe with the music so if you want zen, turn the volume off on this one. Zen is the goal. Not quite there yet. But isn’t the journey the whole point?

Quite an accomplishment for day one my lovely lady!πβ€π
I never figured you to be a worker in the yard as I am. You did a beautiful job at the beginning of creating a beautiful area.
Great job guys ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ» love from England π¬π§π
That green seed pod looks like covid 19! ππππ¦
Iβd stain those flat stones. Not sure what color, but theyβre cool! πΏ Gorgeous property!
Good job, Mo. Hands are the best tools; yes? Love your energy . . .
you can paint the pavers
The Body Snatchers! Hah!
Good progress on Day 1. That seed pod looks like a VIRUS!
Great video, loved it!
What is a zen garden? Love watching and very intriguing.
It's looking good, Monique. Can't wait to see the step-by-step progress!
This is very exciting – I canβt wait to see what you create with this space
Why is it women almost always do the cool stuff in our yards?
How goes the Blue hair…. couldn't really tell.
Did it all wash out, if so how many washes did it take?
I would be sneezing like crazy
That's a beautiful area.
Its a beautiful space…anxious to see what it would like…
Enjoyed this video….beautiful garden! Looking forward to watching the progress! Thank you!
That is going to be a gorgeous area.
You remind me of myself doing all that yard work bending over. Which in the long run will make your back sore or worse surgery. My therapist recommends bending over like a golfer, hard to remember, but I thought I would share that tidbit.
you could have seriously used a wheelbarrow! It's going to be awesome!
Great work! Woman power! ( well a little man power helps too.π)
Can't wait to see the zen garden when done. Monique, you've got some great visions and your location will make them all come to light. What a wonderful peaceful place to hang out while we social distance. Curious if you have any bird of paradise growing at that elevation, because it was plentiful at my front entrance. I'm soooooo envious of you, your piece of heaven is right outside of your door. Stay safe during this time. β€ All my best to you both!
It is so wonderful to see you working so hard in your garden. I am like that and I really miss it as I am away from home for an extended period. A very beautiful house and property, and all your effort and wonderful eye will make it a very livable showcase.
Great and hard work, impressed as hell
πΏπ* .. .
It is going to be gorgeous.
I like your home improvement videos they are down to earth and realistic Thank you
sad this day one upload didn't get a day 2
First issue to address is where all that debris came from! A Zen garden needs almost daily maintenance to keep it pristine and all that leaf litter is going to make your life very busy! In Japan they have teams of gardeners armed with chop sticks picking up every scrap of litter every day before the substrate gets raked!
Bravissima, Monique! ππͺ
Very inspiring but I had to mute the music. It didnβt get me too Zen.
