Sunday October 19, 2008
One day after completetion.

See it's all done.

Karalee took this on her B-Day . The work is all done.

THE END to the BEGINNING

Hose down the gravel so it can settle....
..... watch it settle Brett.
It took a village to help Brett , dig dirt, laydown weed barrer, put in sand, lay flagstone, level flagstone, sweep in gravel, and hose it down. Apelu, Nick, Alexis, Tiffany, Leroy, Jim, Jyoce, Steve M., Karalee, Brett, and brought to you by Karen T. Ostler.
Just about done, got to get them level....


.... sweep away the sand (yes those are abalone shells on the lawn,

they were buried, and we found them while we were removeing

the dirt.) .....

OH, Yeah. We need gravel between the flagstone.
How do these fit together ?
I think I've got one.





Time to remove dirt.....

still removing dirt.....

....Karalee helping, almost done.

First snowfall.....

Aren't the mountains beautiful covered with snow....


The patio construction.....

Brett finally resting from all the digging....
Karalee's first load of dirt......
The rock to be put in the patio is stacked behind Brett
along with a big pile of gravel. Brett and his friends
will finally start installing the stone on October 18th.
It has been rainy and snowy the last two weekends so
he's hoping to finish this project this weekend before
winter comes back.......

Our New Stone pathway

Here's a shot of our stone pathway. Brett and his
