Fine. TWO new entries!
I spent yesterday sneezing my sick head off and enjoying the outdoors with my cool nephew Shawn. We finished a front patio project that's been hanging around like this bad cold. (sneeze) (cough) Basically, I removed all the river rock from a 4'x12' area so we could lay down flagstone and have it as a seating area with chairs now that Max likes to play out front more. (achoo)
There we go again, expanding parts of the house we use so now we need more furniture to fill it! Sheesh... (sneeze, sneeze)
Here's lookin' out towards the front, with our new chairs (that had been gracing the back kitchen patio). We used buff-colored flagstone ($.15/lb) from a local nursery and red crush fine stone (like a powder, very fine) for leveling and to fill in between the rocks.
Here's another view which shows the details a bit better. Took Shawn and I most of the day to finish, but we like the results!
