Long Overdue!

It looked like fun to operate this huge, noisy jack-hammer!


Also Day 1: Placing fill.

They'd had this much done in less than 2 hours.

That is realy a great looking driveway! Worth waiting for! And that was quite a large crew working on it. I'm glad it got finished quickly.

Beautiful driveway. Nice pattern and finish around the edges.
My mom just had a cobblestone drive done. I'm amazed at how fast they can do such a labor intensive job.

Thanks! We are very pleased. The detailed the edging very well, even cutting tiny slivers to go in tiny-sliver-shaped spaces. It was done by Genesis Stoneworks.

It is amazing when you get 6 or 7 guys together who know exactly what they are doing.......the job gets done!

Hey! Is that your little red pickup with the camper shell out on the street? I think Mom said you got a pickup...

That is our "new" pick-up, which we bought from Trish! It is a good li'l helper. We like having it, and we're glad we kept Trish's truck in the family!
