The Courtyard Project


I'm so pleased, we're finally getting our courtyard paving stones layed. This has been a project I've wanted to do (I mean have done) since moving here... but always got put on the back burner. We never got around to picking out stones or finding someone who would bid on and actually do the job. All the local sub-contractors are so busy these days with all the new construction going on they don't want to mess with such a tiny project. This worked out great for Jeff to do it for us.

Jeff came back and will spend the next couple of days getting the job done. The pavers were delivered this morning on a pallet from Lowes. The forklift driver did a masterful job of getting the pallet into our carport within a few feet of the courtyard... very convenient for the job.

Above, Max was "pretending" to help Jeff AND here's Jeff actually doing ALL of the work! Max & I have both discovered our calling is in Management. We are great supervisors, but not much for the physical labor!

Will post more pictures when the project is complete.
