Hi all, this was the next project at the Blackledge homestead. We had a patio poured coming off the deck, these pictures show each view left to right off the deck. there's a firepit in the center and flower beds on either side of the stairs. We are going to run a flagstone sidewalk to the gate and border the patio all around. We moved all the dirt from the dig to the backyard to grade it, hopefully solving the drainage problems in the spring. More planting to do, now that the front and side are full.
Brian is off to San Fran, Ca this week for the national AFSCME convention. He is the M.C. on Tuesday and speaking about his participation in the organizing efforts. They are taping it so I'll be able to view it. He's back on Thursday to till the backyard and lay the flagstone.
Brady starts football in 2 weeks and he is making the most of his time between sports, heading off the Cedar Point on Monday and spending the rest of the week with his Dad and new puppy, Sydney.
Well, back to work on Monday. I'm hosting a job shadowing event for the Boys and Girls club on Tuesday. I'll be showing the retail ropes to 15 kids, learn to love those nights, weekend and holidays...Take care, Lisa

Why does it do that "words down the middle" thing. Would like to know how to do a slideshow...
By default, blogger puts the text that way, you can force it to put the pictures in the middle instead.
Slideshows are simple, get a free account at www.picasa.com. Upload there, then select the 'embed slideshow' option and copy the text and paste it into blogger where you type your message. I can help you if you'd like. Picasa makes a downloadable upload program to make it really easy.
Lisa, Oh, I love the fire pit! Nice addition. The sweeping circles/stamping on the cement looks great.
Chaz's advice (using Picasa)is what I use to post slide shows. I think there is also a tutorial on the blogger dashboard on how to post slide shows.
