Overview

The couple landscaped their backyard from scratch when they moved into the west-side home 20 years ago. They took out a putting green and built raised beds and planters smartly finished with pavers, bricks and landscape rock. They topped the soil with decomposed granite to control erosion.

Glenn, an electrical engineer by training and career, drew up plans that included 650 feet of track, bridges, tunnels, underground wiring and automatic irrigation.
