Spiral Garden phase one: Demolition

I apologize for the fuzziness of these pictures, I was unable to take the picture though the window because of the glare so I had to take it through the screen. This is our front yard, weed infested, half dead grass with a small flower bed in the middle. It has to go! We hardly water our grass at all and have become the ghetto grass owners of the neighborhood. Not that I care but I know they do, since I don't eat grass or take any pleasure in mowing it, we decided to remove it.

All I have for you at this point is the demolition stage, the before pictures and a video that Jacob shot of the grass removal part. We did rent a sod cutter which makes life so much easier. Then we loaded our trailer and the neighbors truck and took it down to the yard waste facility. The plan is to create a spiral/labyrinth like garden with a small 'thyme' pathway and big perennial flower beds. Should be fun!
