The workers started Friday and finished the patio this weekend. That ugly slab of concrete is now a colorful slate patio. Its' been raining today so I took the pic from the Breakfast room window. So this is a peak. Full unveiling to come when furnishing and plants come out. lol

Thank you all for the compliments. I founds some great guys they worked really hard and such nice young men. It was fun to work with them. They have a few more things to do around the house I should have a good bit done in time to have a 4th of July bash.

I am sorry about the pics. I post thumbnails so if anyone if on dialup the larger pics usually freeze their connection. If you want a full size pic just click on the pic and it will open to full size.

Let me know if this is too big

Very nice indeed!!!

I can't believe how similar your house is to the one in the picture that you liked. The door, even the black railing, and now the patio - I really like them!
