Patio - Installment #1

-
Okay, so I forgot to bring my camera in to work with me today...but last night we started the major undertaking of installing a 15' x 18.8' patio in our back yard!!! This sucker is huge! It's actually larger than our master bedroom -- approximately the same size in sq. feet as our basement!!! Last night we were able to get the sod ripped up and the 6" deep hole dug up...and the really amazing part...it only took us 30 min to do all of this. How you may ask...only 30 min for such a large area??? Lou called some one up and they came out and dug it out!! Truly amazing, these guys made the work look way too easy!

Tonight, Lowe's is supposed to deliver all of the stone, sand, and paver base! I just wish it wasn't raining today and that they weren't calling for rain all weekend! UGH. Oh well, hopefully it won't hurt our efforts!

I'll add pictures tomorrow.

Hmmm...we'll see. If you are moving - NOPE!!! No sense in spending the money if you are moving so soon. If you will be staying put, then we'll talk ;-)

Holy cow, we are in 2021. Who would have thought. I started this list in 2015 around my 34th birthday. I thought it would be fun to review and see how far I made it on the list. My 40th will be here in a few months! Looking down the list - I didn't do very well. Maybe I'll bring this list into my 40's and try to complete more of it by the time I turn 50!  Adventure | Travel ✔       Experience the Disney Flower Festival ...
