Yard work...

All concrete out and lines are cut in asphalt, which will be removed next

The asphalt was really bad and the thickness in some areas is like 1-1/2", no wonder why it was cracking!

Better idea of the continuity of the driveway now with all the concrete and asphalt out

With the new walkway we gain a bed in the front that will need to get planted. I want to put something with a bit of height but have to be careful because of the proximity to the house, walkway and having my power lines coming in that area. There are a couple of Japanese maples of interest but finding them may be a whole different story.

First pour begins today! It will be the addition to patio in backyard and the space between the neighbors and in front of garage.


The bad news is that the temps next week being so excessive, they will wait until it cools to do the other two pours.

They decide they would be able to pour today so they are doing it right now.

Progress so far:
Back addition blends right in with what we already had done


Front entry now is so much more inviting
