I like the moss growing around the bricks of the patio, I wish there was more of it, lol. My backyard is tiny. From the 3rd garage to the shed, I plan to put a privacy fence up to close it off and keep my dogs from escaping when they're out there and for privacy reasons. The front yard to the side is all fenced in, with a gate going to the back patio. The dogs have plenty of room to run.
