It probably is not surprising, given how nice the houses on Oak are, that there is a generous backyard. Solid oak decking takes up the first couple yards of garden length, with cheap wicker outdoor chairs set up around a metal table with a glass ashtray atop it. Multi-colored fairy lights are wound all around the wooden railing that encloses the deck, and down the handrails of the steps that lead down to the garden proper.
A crazy paving path meanders from those steps, all the way to the back fence, with lush green grass to either side of it for all but the last quarter. At this point, wooden planters take over, recently seeded with all kinds of fruit and vegetable seeds.
