Great job on the random tasks project. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you and Janey for Dig, Plant, Repeat making top 5 of the top 20 gardening channels on You tube in a you tube poll. Janey's love for gardening comes across so genuinely, so it is a much-deserved honor in my opinion Well done, Jason.
My two cents about the rocks by the carport is the pervious section between the asphalt and concrete allows for a drainage channel. Maybe you could get a metal drain cover (like the long narrow deco strips Michael uses, just wider) and remove just a few inches to make a narrow trench with a cover.
The stones will be for drainage to prevent water damage. You might have pipework under it to a inground soakaway. If you concreted you might get an ingress of water when it occasionally rains heavily there, I’m especially thinking of your rains from a couple of years ago at your previous property. A solution would be to put in some proper drainage channels with grates over the top connecting to your drainage system or a soakaway thus creating a flat surface. Speak to Jerry at creekside about his underground drainage solutions around his driveway parking and garage.
Agree with Heather, the rocks are for drainage. If you decided to remove I’d replace with proper drainage that Michael Glassman loves with the metal grate over it. But don’t concrete over it. You will lose expansion/contraction flex for heat, cold and any heavy rains could come into carport/house
Hi Jason and Janey 🌺 . Well doneJason , you did a wonderful work . Congratulations to Janey for coming the fourth place for the gardeners . Have a beautiful day .🌻🌺🌻
Have you guys ever considered putting some of those Vego metal beds lining the side of your carport? It would make a wonderful staging (waiting) area for plants to sit in their pots and easier watering since they’re off the ground until you have time or find their homes in the garden. As I saw Jason tidying up the area I envisioned it. I think it would solve several issues at once. What if you remove the rocks and put in creeping thyme or something else you could walk on. That’s a simple idea until you figure out a permanent solution. I love your tote area. So tidy! The white really does brighten up the space. You guys always inspire me in my yard and garage.
I think the rocks between the concrete and asphalt are probably to address drainage issues. What if you dig them up, create slightly wider, straight margins and insert a decorative brick ribbon. Note, I would leave a half inch gap between bricks to allow for drainage.
Hey Janey, if you ever get a chance to go to the Atlanta Gift Show it would be worth the trip. Its called Americas Mart and its a wholesale trade show for people who have gift stores and also garden centers. When we had our gift store we loved going to this trade show. We always found so many great things for our store. The variety of things is overwhelming as people come to this trade show from all over the world. The winter show actually starts tomorrow, January 15 and it runs for about a week. The summer show is in July. It was the highlight of what we did for our business and so much fun. We owned our store for almost 20 years and looking back was a huge part of our family life. I still do a county fair over Labor Day weekend and it keeps me involved since my husband passed away in September of 2020. We were married 53 years. He was my best friend. Love all of your videos Janey and Jason. You both are doing a great job. !
Awesome job Jason. Glad to see you working so hard. Enjoyed your content too. You will make Janey proud. Like to see you both doing projects. Say hi to Janey. Hope she is ok!
I believe that area with small rocks is a French drain. Maybe when it rained a lot there was problems with water accumulation. I don’t think you should concrete it over.
Looking good! I agree with the drainage/stones. How about making a dog cam? Attach a GoPro camera to Monty’s collar. It can be added to the end of the regular videos.
Good morning Jason. Jobs well done!!!!!! The row of rocks/gravel between the carport and asphalt is like a dry creek bed. It helps keep the water/rain water from pouring over and flooding or from creating puddles. It help with the drainage and keeping the water from your foundation of the house. Jason, I love it when you do some of the videos so keep them coming. Have wonderful evening with your family.
I forgot about Random Task, that's so funny. Good job Jason. There is a chipped gravel that kind of locks together that might be a better choice for that strip, I assume what's there was an easy fix for the step down to the asphalt.
Hi Jason! It always feels so good to get Random Tasks done, great job! Question, is it possible the perimeter rock beds are required for drainage away from the house somehow? By the way…great chariot, what fun that’s going to be! Zone3 Manitoba 🇨🇦❄️👏
I loved this video...I love tagging along with people as they do their errands and tasks...gives me the incentive to get off of my keister and do my own random tasks.🌿 Good job Jason. Would you be open to digging up the asphalt and gravel and putting down crushed granite? It's efficient for drainage and is cost effective and looks great..🌿
The rocks are for drainage. Do you have gutters or gutter guards on your roof to take the drainage away? Also, I think you need to keep that hubby! lol!
Great video. I'm in KY and buried in snow and ice. This was a pleasant watch that I enjoyed very much. So tired of the cold - sigh. Thanks for the video.
I have used paver underlayment that I bought at lowes in bags to pack in places like between your blacktop and carport. It is crushed and packs really well and the grey color would blend nicely...great job on the video Jason!
For the dangerous gravel border, maybe dig out what you can and put a row of paver stones in that area. Fill in with polymeric sand or ground cover or whatever to keep things from moving around. It might actually be an attractive transition area.
Doing things that make your space more welcoming is always a good day. Your question about that small space between the drive blacktop and the concrete could maybe be dug out and filled with your crushed granite material.
Great job! Wish I was as motivated. Could you use the decomposed granite near the concrete to fill that space? Stainless steel hose clamps would work to secure the trellis situation.
Great job and am sure your family appreciates it all! My random task for the day it to get my Christmas decor down and put away! You are way ahead of me. Of course I had to put in 2 seed orders first. 😉
Hi Jason, what a great job tidying up! So satisfying getting these tasks done isn’t it? Janey is lucky to have such a wonderful husband. For your trellis by the shade garden you might want to consider solidifying the outer edges by putting in hooks on the fence and house and tying it into that or putting a few tall rebar stakes to tie to. Once that clematis fills in more it’s going to get pretty heavy and need more support.
Thank you Tammy! Yes! I almost did this but was getting short on light and wasn’t sure that the wire I was using was the best option. But I will probably add some additional stability.
Random tasks often only get done when scheduled. So kudos to you for making that happen. In the words of Austin Powers to Random Task "...That really hurt! I'm going to have a lump there, you idiot. Who throws a shoe!? Honestly, you fight like a woman!" 😂 Hello to Monty, you beautiful doggo.
Hi Jason 👋 You are Awesome 😎 You are a perfectionist in doing the Jobs the right way, I'm telling my husband to fix a 💡 bulb in Store room for about a 3 months and yet he is about to fix it 😭 by the by my husband is a Electrical Contractor 🥺
For over the stones, I would pour 1.5 feet concrete ramp that goes around the carport. You can pour on top of the stones. Also, I think that wicker basket goes under the tables, and the long auger thing hangs on the wall 😊 Just a little extra help 😂
Great job, Jason! Congrats to you and Janey for being voted so high up on the top 20 gardening channels list!!Your channel is AWESOME!!

Jason, Janey this sounds like a good plan
Yes, I need to investigate further before I make any big changes for sure!
I think we need a regular Random Task Tuesday!
Yes!❤
Absolutely! This would be the motivation we all need.

Luv your CARTport😊
Hi Jason and Janey 🌺 . Well doneJason , you did a wonderful work . Congratulations to Janey for coming the fourth place for the gardeners . Have a beautiful day .🌻🌺🌻
Use the spray glue on the rocks …..should help a bit 🌻
...I tho't about that too!... 🤔👌👩🏼🌾💚 =^..^=
Great job, now can you come to my house. LOL

You could dig the rocks, put pavers , then plant a creeping plant so there is no mud
My thoughts as well.
The gardeners solution. Love it!
This is such a feel good video, I love it! Working together while you do other things---seeing change by eod. What fun this was to watch!

Love you both!! Your TH-cam channel starts my day off hapoy.😄
It always feels good to get things checked off the to-do list!
Congratualions Janey and Jason on making the Top 20👏....I was screaming...I just knew you had to be there❤❤❤❤
Hello. My husband suggested using copper wire to secure the wire frames/arch because they won't rust and corrode.
Good job. We all have random things that need done . Take care.😊
Awesome job Jason. Glad to see you working so hard. Enjoyed your content too. You will make Janey proud. Like to see you both doing projects. Say hi to Janey. Hope she is ok!

AHHH I love random task days, so relaxing to watch. I'm in 10" of snow, so vicariously living through Jason right now.
“Honestly….who throws a shoe?”….loving the Random Task reference. The metal
Arbor is looking fantastic with the clematis.
Looking good! I agree with the drainage/stones. How about making a dog cam? Attach a GoPro camera to Monty’s collar. It can be added to the end of the regular videos.

Jobs well done Jason. I'm sure Janey will be very happy.
Jason, nice to see you doing a video again! For the patio, maybe a dark metal grate for drainage? ❤M
Good on you Jason!!!😊
you done a fantastic job. thanks jason for sharing. hope you have a great day!
Could you use the same mulch/stone glue on those rocks that you used up front? At least to keep them a little more contained?
Very nice Jason I'm sure Janey will be proud of you and thankful. 🙂❤️
Hi Jason! Your cleaning? Huggicates and love! Wind behave!❤😊❤
I forgot about Random Task, that's so funny. Good job Jason. There is a chipped gravel that kind of locks together that might be a better choice for that strip, I assume what's there was an easy fix for the step down to the asphalt.

You need rebar was tall as your trellis and tie it together with strong wire.
Great video. I'm in KY and buried in snow and ice. This was a pleasant watch that I enjoyed very much. So tired of the cold - sigh. Thanks for the video.
Maybe Monty was running around like a crazy dog because he wanted you to give him a ride in the chariot! 😊🇨🇦
Good job Jason 👏
Would large pavers be a possibility to replace the stones?
Nice to see Jason, good job..❤
Maybe use that gravel glue on those rocks by the carport.
Well done, Jason! Always great to get things crossed off the list.
Great job Jason! I always enjoy your videos. Xxx
Very satisfying Jason…
I have used paver underlayment that I bought at lowes in bags to pack in places like between your blacktop and carport. It is crushed and packs really well and the grey color would blend nicely...great job on the video Jason!

Awesome video Jason. I don’t know about the rocks but to me it needs paved. Like the rest of the driveway. Expensive but so worth it.
Great job and am sure your family appreciates it all! My random task for the day it to get my Christmas decor down and put away! You are way ahead of me. Of course I had to put in 2 seed orders first. 😉
Good job jason ya we need more sun time
Great video Jason, you accomplished a lot!
Use your pebble glue and some edge right to keep it in place
You are a bit further south than us. Our sunset is 4:38 pm --way too early.
Great job❤️👍
Hi Jason 🙋♀️
Good job 👍

😂 I know that villain, got pumped by Mr power 😂😂😂😂
If you patch anything use asphalt patch instead of concrete… it will look much better
Can you remove quite a bit of those drip edge gravel stones and then add a good layer of the golden crushed granite?
Or cement with pretty river pebbles pressed into the top?
Try mulch glue, spray on
I'm sorry that this is random, but I'd love to see an update on your climbing hydrangea plant, if possible 😁
Enjoyed your video today Jason 😊
Put the mulch glue on the rocks between concrete and pavement
Jason , hang the bicycles up in your storage garage . We hang ours up when not using
Thanks for the motivation Jason but it is cold out, therefore I will working on the garage😊

❤❤❤❤❤❤Nice❤❤❤❤❤
Well done, Texas9b ❤
Maybe use your spray glue on the gravel?
Your rocks are a French Drain.
The rock may be covering a French drain for water run off.
Hi Jason 👋
You are Awesome 😎
You are a perfectionist in doing the Jobs the right way, I'm telling my husband to fix a 💡 bulb in Store room for about a 3 months and yet he is about to fix it 😭 by the by my husband is a Electrical Contractor 🥺
Hire a local electrician that is his competitor to make a point.. he will never live it down with his crew
Seems like we always have random tasks to do
Use those dangerous stones, move to dry creek bed.
Jason needs a Random Task Guy hat!
I actually thought of putting a hat on my head in the thumbnail photo but then forgot to do it! 😂
Metal zip ties are your friend. Lol.
Morning
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hey 3 tasks done, feels good to get those monkeys off your back. And the rest will save for another day. 😂
👋👍
French drain & asphalt patch for a permanent solution.
Reall well done 👍🏾
For over the stones, I would pour 1.5 feet concrete ramp that goes around the carport. You can pour on top of the stones.
Also, I think that wicker basket goes under the tables, and the long auger thing hangs on the wall 😊
Just a little extra help 😂
Jason you neeed zip ties there easy and the best
Who throws a shoe? 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
