The brick pavers are now held in place by paver set (a concrete type product) and broken brick rocks edge the little patio. The fire pit is assembled. As soon as the paver set cures, we can party in the back yard. My husband has wanted to do this for 5 years. He's very happy to have one project done. One to the next one. Retirement is so relaxing! LOL!
it seems you will be staying put for awhile after his retirement. It's fun to complete a project because one has the time and interest and energy. You will enjoy this.
