The Retaining Wall
What happens when you have a half-finished patio and your contractor won't tell you when the pavers will be delivered? You build a retaining wall!
Linda and I went to Home Depot and picked out the stones we would use. We needed 110. They cost $2.95 each. No problem. Upon getting home, our neighbor was loading retaining wall stones outof her car. They looked like the ones we just bought. We commented on how similar they looked. She said "yeah! K-Mart had them on sale for less than a dollar each". Did I previously say I liked Home Depot?
So, first we mark the line of the wall:
Then, find the deepest point, and make it level and start laying out the blocks!
After a while, it starts to look like a wall.
Butworking on this slope is slippery.
