woohoo:D

You could just put down wood chips, or gravel. although pavers you could take with you if you move;)

Or......those huge paver/tiles, and some pebbles inbetween?
 
I was thinking those huge paver tiles i like those, just plain ones and some extra as stepping stones out the front i would be more than happy to leave them behind if the owner was willing to re emburse me for them.
I dont like wood chips they bread cockies and i dont like cockies LOL

Well, those white pebbles, or the grey cheap ones. Not crusher dust either, coz they breed flees!:yuk
 
Good job Cammy and a nice place you have there.

I love outdoor work so yesterday I did the farm driveway. It wasn't to make it look all pretty like yours though. I whacked a few hundred yards of Blackberry bushes along one fence with a power blade. My arms and scalp look like I had a fight with a bunch of razor blades cuz I wasn't wearing a hat or long sleeved shirt. It's kinda like cooking bacon without a shirt on. :24:
 
My yard is a bush, weeds and a hint of garden in there somewhere, well there was a few years ago. I want to fix it up, so my kiddies have somewhere to play, but at the moment there are are more things to do around the house before that happens.
 
the price landscapers (or so they think they can actually do a good job ) is insane. especially with he price of gasoline. Our neighbor gets his yard done every other week. Now I know environmentally how wrong it is but his yard looks impeccable, yet we do our own effort in the raking, updating, lawn mowing, etc...I shudder to think how much it is costing him...no worries though, I see my wife every once and a while push some of the leaves onto his property....lol
which reminds me I have to go and dump out the leaf bags today....

but, great job Cam!!!!!

Fred I don't remember if you saw my thread regarding my pressure washer but I just picked up one of these yesterday and man I gotta tell you it's a bargain. For 250 bucks this thing works like a $600 machine.

You can get one in your neck of the woods for $299

I think mine just needs a gasket. I was looking at my concrete and thinking about it.

Because of our climate we always end up with quite a bit of moss and algae on certain parts of the driveway. The new machine blew that crud off like nobodies business. Then I gave both cars a quick wash. Then I did the carport. Don't you love new man toys.:24:
