| While my retaining wall that I've been building since last fall isn't finished yet, I started a dry lay flagstone walkway project that is going to be bordered by Belgian block. We choose a mixture of mountain Fieldstone and Wissahickon irregular flagstone to build this out of. So far we've done all the excavation work and layed the base material down and have set the border block in mortar. |

| Spent the last two Saturday's laying the flagstone down. Spent the first day laying the screenings material and tamping it down along with laying the stones down in the walkway. We only had maybe 5 feet of walkway finished at the end of the first day. We did have just about the entire walkway jigsaw puzzle put together but it was just laying there and not leveled out. Yesterday my one brother put the flagstone jigsaw puzzle together for the air conditioner/trash can/ hose reel area while my other brother and I worked on the front walkway. I had a couple hours left this morning, but as you can see by the pictures it is complete. All that is left is to let it settle for a few weeks and then I'll put the little pea gravel in between the joints. |
