The lowest level became a clay-colored flagstone patio with a river of embedded pebbles meandering through it. A curved brick stairwway with a sculptured (by our sculptor) handrail brings you to the 2nd level, a stone patio with a lovely, fully appointed casita retreat house, an arbor with built-in seating, and a planted retaining wall. A brick stairway leading you back in the other direction takes you to level 3, where gaily colored horse troughs are home to a vegie garden, and the planted retaining wall is home to a variety of herbs.
Up another curved brick stairway is a barbecue patio, and above that is a wooden deck with a sweeping view of the whole yard, as well as the the entire south city. The artistic handrail adorned with curved, copper pipe decorations adds both security and beauty.
