Starting to plant and solar panels

Today 8/10/2013 we started to put the first of our trees in the front garden. We planted 9 ornamental pears either side of the drive way.

Half of them in
We don't want to plant too much in the front garden, We've got such a nice outlook to the block across the road. The couple that own it have spent the last 23 years establishing it. There isn't a house there yet! 
The finished trees
We've found that we get quite a bit of wind here so we made sure that we staked the trees well.
We got some solar panels installed last Friday 4/10/2013. Once the system is up and going we are hoping we don't get much of a power bill being a 5 KW unit.

Also today the painter came back and put the first coat of stain on the deck. We decided to just go a natural colour for the stain.
