at the end of the day, david said he wanted to quit UPS and start a hardscaping business. ummmmm....?? he was really interested in the fact we were charged 30k and the materials we'd purchased up to that point were about 3500. i told him i wouldn't be joining that endeavor as his assistant; this one is enough for me. oh, it's hard.
david spent day 2 erecting the wall and building a "grand, sweeping staircase." this included lifting block after block after block and placing them carefully in the wall, and placing and pounding more gravel for each stair. my job was prepping the patio area for the flagstone; loading and pushing wheelbarrow after wheelbarrow full of paver base all over the patio area, then renting a plate compactor and pounding the base, then doing it all over again. david said i had to beat the beast by placing at least one flagstone at the end of the day. so i did three.
we had some windy weather blowing in a cold front; pace had fun turning the plastic wrap from the pallets of blocks in to a kite.
