Preparation for our new Spa...

Here is a preliminary view of our backyard, awaiting delivery of our new spa. As you can see, I chose to put together a "pad" of flat paver stones. Yes, it was hard work. Yes, I was sore afterwards for a few days. And yes, I had to do the job twice; due to my inexperience in laying paver stones. I will take this time to recommend to any future "pave-meisters" that they invest the $10 to buy some knee pads prior to the installation. Apparently knees were not anatomically designed to be a weight bearing part of the body. Live and learn, as they say.
