We're in the final stages of backyard construction. Last week the teams finished the stone work on the patio and made preparations for the new deck. We added a new walk-way to the lower section of the backyard last week. The photo above shows the walkway before the new concrete was poured today.
The construction teams used a wheel barrow to haul the concrete from the cement truck to the walkway. They made at least 20 trips with wheel barrows today!
Here's a photo of the half finished walkway. The concrete is a color called "San Diego Brown". The walkway looks much better today!
I know what your thinking... what's so special about three (3) concrete blocks? The blocks are the foundation and form for the new BBQ. The crew set the blocks yesterday and bolted them together. Next steps are to add the stone exterior, place the BBQ & shelves and finally pour a concrete stained counter top. The work will be complete next week.
The center piece to the backyard is the new deck! You can see in the photo above three (3) posts that will support the new deck. We finalized the deck design last week and the crew ordered new redwood lumber. The redwood material should arrive tomorrow morning. Deck construction begins!!!
Lookin good!! I'm glad Dexter will have a deck again so that he can go out on it and bark at animals. :)
