Project Patio

As you can see, our poor pavered patio was in desperate need of some attention. The space was barely usable. The stones were so uneven that it felt like you were sitting on a Titanic deck chair when seated, so out they came. Bye-bye pavers!

I've been waiting three years for this project, but it took a while to stop hemorrhaging cash from that last huge project but now we are finally underway. Another feature that I wasn't sad to see go away are the railroad ties next to the house that housed a mudpit that was popular with the neighborhood cats as a toilet. Bye-bye railroad ties!

We are also expanding the patio to be the full length of the house as you can see from this pic. I'm planning on having an outdoor room underneath the deck with couches and a fire pit, and then patio furniture in the open area. They are laying concrete tomorrow and then we have a mason that's going to tile the area in New Mexico Buff Sandstone with a Pennslyvania Blue rock border.

More to come!
