I’ve been a little busy lately helping to put in our new patio (16×40 in the back, walkway around house, and 16×8 added to the driveway).  A friend and I formed it up, I did the dirt work and other prep, and we had it poured a couple weeks ago.  It’s not much to look at now because it’s simple but it keeps the mud from coming inside and it’s just step one of the vision I have for the backyard.  Next will be my barn, hot tub, and in the spring we will cover the entire patio.
