Backyard Blues

My husband and I bought our first home about three years ago. It has turned out to be a bit of a money pit. The previous owners did not care about the place at all. Since we have moved in we have put over $30,000 renevating the inside and fixing everything that we thought was ok when we bought the house. The backyard has just been an eye sore since we moved in. We have removed a gazebo that was falling down, as well as a rusted shed that wouldn't even open. We have a hot tub that is from the early 1990's, and it is falling apart. The hot tub does not work, and is just taking up space in our yard, it is very ugly. Finally, we have two dogs that decided to tear everything up as they were puppies. Now that they have settled down, we would like to get our backyard looking nice. I was a graduate from culinary school, and love to have bar-b-que's with all of our friends over. I haven't been able to have a bbq latley becuase we are just to embarassed of our backyard. Since we have spent so much money on the inside of the house, we just don't have anything left for the backyard. With housing priced falling every day, we can't even refinance to redo the backyard.
