Alright /diy/nosaurs!
I just inherited some property and I'm looking to clean up and build something in the backyard because I'm bored, but I can't figure out what to make.
I was hoping you guys could give me suggestions.
I was thinking of a shaded area over what will one day be the garden, but that's all I've really got so far. (California central valley heat is brutal)
Any suggestions? Preferably to do with wood since that's what I'm at least adept at, but really I'm up for anything. I was also thinking about a Japanese smoker made of brick.
are firepits allowed in your area?
get rid of that garden fence and make a bitchin' firepit.

Restoring and maintaining that grass will be a bitch. Would local codes allow you to dig it up and replace it with some kind of stone or sand? You could start a trend in both style and water conservation.

Swimming pool :)
If you cant afford, maybe a deck?

Hmmm I've thought about that, but where would I put the deck?

Have you considered a thyme lawn? They are really drout resistant and turn purple when they bloom.

I'd put it more-or-less where the garden is. And surround it with raised garden beds.

I've heard about those plants! I didn't know you could make a lawn out of it???
Shit that's a really cool idea anon!
Does it feel somewhat like actual grass?

Idk how good they feel as a lawn material, i live in western oregon so theres a ton of rain and nobody uses it.

Where in the Central Valley? I'm just north of Fresno and the heat is killer.

>Not growing cannabis and succulents.
What are the restrictions and are there any easements on the back?

Why bother everything is dead, you can't maintain a simple yard. Rent it to immigrants or park cars there and sell parts. Either way you have already failed.

Learn to read. He just inherited it. Not like he's been neglecting it for a year.

Why not bury a shipping container? It will be nice and cool underground and a could serve as a workshop, man cave or whatever.
