Default Low buck mods for the backyard

Backyard is currently rock with some trees and a kidney-shaped section of grass. What do you guys have in yours that you like? I'm thinking of going with less grass and putting in a fire pit with sand and/or river rock. Any ideas?

Built in stainless steel barbeque is a must.


Maybe something like this but less elaborate.

Low cost pool - don't spend $100,000.

That's less than $7k for that rock fall...plus the cost of the pool. And speaking of pool - it looks plastered, not even pebbletec, pebblesheen or pebblefina...

I have a small fire pit, pool and BBQ in mine but I can't see myself using the fire pit to often, if at all.

^After your third summer here you'll understand.

Brian, I would do something a little more original. As you can see everybody has the pool, bbq, koi pond etc...


But how many have a 1952 Chevy?
