Patio - Still Digging
The patio progress has been foiled by the weather...why in the world would I want to be digging in 85% humidity? Gag.
At least, we've found pavers we really like. Of course, we just went from something like, $1/sq ft at Home Depot to $4/sq ft from a specialty place who ONLY sell by the pallet. One pallet is roughly 80 sq ft of pavers and we need 63 sq ft.
Here's a snapshot of the pattern and color pallet we like from the paver company:
Allegheny Blend from the Omni-Vintage Collection
Omni-Pro Hardscaping & Landscaping Professionals, Gibsonia, PA
They're also thicker than the ones from HD, so more digging.
Since I'm needing to relocate some good soil, I ordered some sand bags, so I have been hauling dirt to my community garden plot. Neat thing, I ordered 10 bags and they shipped 9 of them in one of the bags and just slapped a label on it.
