Stacy Sutton is a busy career woman from the city. She loves her job and city life. However, when she needs to relax she goes to her home in the country. There is nothing special about the home itself. It is what lies behind the concrete fence that is special. Stacy’s country home sits on a generous amount of land. The land behind her house is enclosed by a concrete fence decorated with flowering vines. Inside the boundary of this fence lies a beautiful garden, perfect for relaxing and entertaining friends.
When you pass through the gates of the concrete fence you immediately find a path made of concrete stones. The path is illuminated by lighted concrete bollards and is surrounded on both sides by a stunning array of flowers and trees. After walking a short distance on the path through the garden you come to a point where the path splits in two different directions.
If you take the path farthest to the left you will soon find yourself walking up concrete steps that take you to a concrete patio in the shape of a crescent moon. This concrete patio lines a large pond on one side. There are four lighted concrete bollards illuminating the concrete patio. There are three concrete benches on the patio by the edge of the pond. These concrete benches are shaped like turtles. Each concrete bench holds a small concrete planter with sun flowers inside it.
Should you choose to take the path to the right you will soon find yourself in the heart of the garden. There you will find a large square concrete patio. On this patio there are several lighted concrete bollards. There is also a grill and several concrete tables for entertaining dinner guests. These concrete tables are round with rectangular benches. The tables are made in a smooth finish of dove gray. Each concrete table features a hole in the center of the table, enabling the use of an umbrella for shade during the day. There is a stream of water flowing past this patio that is fed by the pond above. A small concrete bridge spans from one side of the stream to the other, connecting the large square concrete patio with a smaller square patio on the opposite side. This small patio area features a concrete fireplace and several concrete benches, also ideal for entertaining guests. The concrete fireplace has the appearance of an indoor fireplace and offers warmth on chilly nights or days. The concrete benches on this patio are not as intricate in detail as those by the pond. They are made in a smooth dove gray finish to match the concrete tables on the adjoining patio and are rectangular in shape.
