PATIO IMPROVEMENT

Shortly after moving into the house on Oak Valley, we got rid of our lawnmower and replaced our back lawn with a patio.  The patio looked great, but we soon realized it was too narrow to ever place even a small patio table in the yard. 

It needed to be widened.

This week it was.

The following few photos are in sets of three: The first photo in each set shows dirt.  The second photo shows framing and rebar placement.  The third photo shows the finished patio as it appeared when I got home from work today.

Next summer it looks like we'll be able to find seating at an outside table.
