Brick Work

We went back & forth for a few days about the circle where the paths met, and our garden feature/sun dial was going to be placed.  Should we have the blue stone of the pathways continue through the circle, or make it stand out with some brickwork?

We decided to do a herringbone pattern of brick, with a boarder around it...

Pathway Progress

The stone work moved along nicely...

We realized that we need another of the stepping blocks to put to go into the Well House... that had to be ordered.

Patio Furniture

The end of that week in late March brought more progress on the wall that will be in front of the pavilion.

This got us excited to start planning out the patio space a little.  Over the weekend we went to check out the pavilions.  While there, we stumbled on a sale on a patio set, so we went ahead and bought one that we liked.  It was going to take a few weeks to get it delivered, but that should be good timing!

It should go really well with the wrought iron pieces that I already have. 

Blue Stone Walkways

Another day and a lot of progress was made!  These photos were taken March 28th- we were happy that the threat of snow seemed to be gone and things were moving right along!

More stone was delivered...

Progress is also being made on the stone wall that will be in front of the pavilion...

Heading down the Garden Path

As I was leaving for work the next morning, the landscapers were arriving to mark out the pathways.  A big truck was also parked on the side of the road to deliver the stone for the steps!

When I got home from work, the stone was unloaded and it was exciting to see that a lot of the gravel was in place for the pathways...

We still have the old fence up so the dog can still run free.  Soon we're going to have to start walking him on the leash until the new fence is in place.
