Phase 2.95

So,we decided to just add another row of bricks.Not another row of block(cheaper that way-we're all about cheap!),and larger gravel.Gave it a work out this evening.We still need to order the mesh spark screen,but that will wait until after the holidays. And one of the flamingo's,on the Cantina,says,"MERRY CHRISTMAS."

Phase 2.5

This is where we are now.Well,actually,Jon is taking a nap,after hauling the blocks and bags of gravel to the back.........Hey!I bought 'em,got 'em in the truck,and brought 'em home.The least he can do is haul them to the back. It has been decided(a mutual decision,too,I might add) that the wall behind the fire bowl shall go up another row.We will wait to see what that looks like,before we decide if it should go up any higher. And it needs more of the larger gravel towards the back.
Still working on getting a fire screen.Gonna go on a "mission from God" tomorrow.....

Stay tuned...........................

Here We Go Again.....

I should say "I" instead of we....
So,I get this hair up you-know-where,and decide to take out that garden that we had put int.Don't worry,all those plants were carefully relocated,elsewhere.
All this,just because I think it would look better with a fire-pit there.
Erich,the Younger,had given this to me as a birthday present a few years back.I think he got a deal on it bacause it didn't come with a spark screen.It's the thought that counts,right?
But I digress......
Soooo,this is what it looks like for right now.We(I) need to raise the Great Wall up another row or two(probably one row)and fill it in with gravel.

I also need to get a spark screen.I found a really neat one on the Internet.Must get on that......

to be continued..............................
