The Project

We have paved a section of our terrace. Pavers are on the sand, which is on the weed block, which is on the gravel, in the deep, deep hole.
Well, we have just thirty-five pavers so far. There will be almost two hundred. So we are making progress. It was hot yesterday, so we waited until things had cooled a bit and paved. It's a group project, between hauling sand from the driveway, bringing the pavers from the stacks, smoothing the sand and keeping it level.
When I was little and the street by our dwelling was re-cobbled I spend a lot of time sitting and watching the men work. Golly, it's finally payed off.
We also found a way to keep Alani out of the way while we are on the job. We turn the Rainbird sprinkler on, and she's happy, and wet, for quite a while.
