Thanks!  Yes I did.  The landscape company that did the curbing said 50' of weed barrier would be enough to cover it, so for a few bucks more, I bought 100'.







The pink bucket you saw in the background is for those ugly pink rocks I used when I put down the fabric.  That's all Lowes had in stock   The wind was blowing pretty hard that day, and I didn't want it all blowing away.    When I find a pink rock, it goes in the bucket

Great job Squirt!

Ya did awesome!  8)

I hear ya on how much work that is. I re-did my back yard a couple of years ago with lots of concrete, rock and boulders. Some of the boulders weighed over 500 lbs and a friend (really good friend  ;) ) and I moved about 10 of them in by hand. Lets just say if I get some stupid idea like that again I hope somebody kicks me in the.... It turned out great though.

Hey Mike, I got a couple really big boulders in my yard, when are you and your friend planning to pick them up?  ;) ;D

Squirt...nice job. Are you building a cover for it?

Thanks everyone!!

Yes, that is probably a project a year out from now... (gotta pay off a couple cars first)
4 big posts, flat roof, sloped 8.5' up front to 7' in the back.  Something like a lean-to roof, but tastefully done.

you are on a mission...you will have it done before you know it

The Mrs keeps wanting to dress it up with Bistro table/chair sets, flower boxes, decorative flags, etc.
Whereas, I'm thinking Weber Smokey Mountain, Big Green Egg, UDS...    :D

First on the agenda though, ILLUMINATION.   I was out grilling last night in the dark..  The gasser has a light that comes on when the lid is up, but that's about it.   Ended up with my maglite tucked under my arm while I foiled/panned everything up into our little cooler.

My camp kitchen has some lantern hangers that attach to the top, I will look for one today.

Squirt your project is coming together nicely, it will be used allot I'm sure

[iceman]

Very nice squirt. We just got our lawn in out front and hope to get the back done next year. Your project just gave me the incentive I needed. Great job.  ;)  :)
