Patio (Kinda small though)

Well, we were thinking about creating a HUGE 16' square patio in our backyard. Then the reality of back filling behind a retaining wall that is more then 2' tall sunk in. Gonna be cheaper and easier and better looking to build a big 16' square deck and have a small patio to hold the BBQ... So, as the first step into that one, we build the 5'x10' patio.
This is at the halfway point... Well, halfway with the top surface. We still had to build up nearly 8 inches on the far side of this little pad.

Jane says, "I'm tired"

Let's go play with the neighbor's grandkid...

Extending the back course to find out how much fill we really needed.

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!!!

Done with BBQ and chairs and Hose Reel (Bale of hay was temporary...)

Of course we wouldn't leave out our supervisors (Next door neighbors on the other side...)
