Nothing like freshly screeded traffic bond on a sweltering day to cool you off.
Yep, looks pretty flat from here.
Always protect your lungs!
What happened to my soft spot in the shade?
4 yards 3/4TB, 1 yard 1/4TB, 520 Belgium pavers.  A lot of back breaking work and one lazy dog.  Next time I think Ill pour concrete!
Next up, 2 level deck attached to rear of house.

I needed to widen my driveway a bit to allow 2 cars to easily park.  Decided to go with the pavers to give it a walkway look.  Total cost of materials and compactor rental was just under $1000.  At 180 square feet, that's $5.50 a square foot.
