We've begun another big project! We're taking off the wooden decks and replacing them with flagstone patios. There will be stone steps coming out of the house to a lower patio and then a step or two going down to another patio with a gas fire pit. I'll add some pics soon. Arn and I demoed the lower deck and he rented a trencher.......hard to handle! We had to get the trench 20 inches deep! We(mostly he) cleaned it up and deepened it after using the trencher and I helped go under and around different pipes and roots. We had a local guy come and grind out three stumps and some roots.
Yesterday the gas line was put in and inspected. Now we have to choose a fire pit that both of us like. We have somebody interested in the old deck so that should help with the demo. We are on the schedule to get the patio done in September, hopefully before the wedding......no more deck staining, dry rot, or fire danger! More to come!
Update - 8/21/18..............the trench is finished. The gas line is connected and the 'bump' from the gas company is done. The firepit is ordered!
