Finished up some more boards for my house remodel ... Got a shower... Cooked an omelette with eggs straight from the chicken and fresh grown peppers, now laying on the couch watching some L&O

Yeah, a smaller one, either 6x6 or 6x7 by the time I'm done.  Contemplating parking the small egg out there with the Karubecue for mid cook lunches, while tending the fire.  Maybe a kettle?  I'm hurtin' this mornin. Getting old sucks.

Cool!  I'm sure it will not be half a$$.  Looking forward to the results.  

In regards to "Getting old sucks", yes, it certainly does.

You have to copy the "direct" link, then paste into the "Image URL" field.

Guess I would consider this a patio addition. Hahaha

Hoping it won't be half-ass for $100 in total.
Pricematched Menards at Lowes for $.99 pavers.  Lowes were $1.78, true 12x12, and better(thicker, smoother) quality.  Worked out pretty good last night.  So much cheaper, and easier, than pouring a slab.

Coming from a relative youngster, that made me laugh this morning.  All I can say is that you haven't seen anything yet.  Like the bumper sticker said, "Getting old isn't for wimps."

tarheelmatt

Seeing your install made me think about @johnmitchell and those big a$$ rocks of his.  John, whats the status?

About the only thing worse than getting old is not.

 Was looking around on my works Recognition site, where if someone nominates you for any number of items (thanks, above and beyond, etc), you get to choose gift cards to a number of places for the amount others selected for you.  It's pretty sweet, especially when you rack up some and I get Amazon cards.  

One place that I never heard of and I found very neat and others may find it to be neat too, is AmazingClubs.com.  There's all types of clubs from coffee, beer, hot sauce, BBQ sauce, bacon, and way more.  

Anyone ever notice this site before and tried it?  It is a little pricey, but not too bad, considering the service.

@Focker
Maybe you plan on it, but you may want to put landscaping fabric down to block the weeds from coming up in between your blocks over time.

Thanks for the advice.  I thought about that.  Weeds still grow up through the sediment that settles on top over time, in my experience.  And the crap isn't cheap.  Same happened when I used milled plastic.  Figured an occasional Roundup on the grass edges and a torch for the joints would keep them at bay.

Just wiring in my new hydro/electrical panel for the pool.  Anyone down for taking a dip?

The rocks are all in position and we are having 20 yards of soil delivered after the 4th of July weekend. Then we will start planting in the fall. I will post some pics once it is completed.. Matt don't forget to include me in the quoting process when you get ready to lay out your garden at your new mansion !!!!

Very jealous of all the trees there.  I don't think there are that many trees on my street.  #problemwithlivinginwesttexas

Looks like a regular nature trail/nature preserve.  Sweet.
