The Good The Bad The Ugly - not necessarily in that order.

We will start with the ugly. 
What a mess!
This is the way it looks around here
when we have a project in the works.
And we always have a project in the works!
Inside is the place to work
when it is still cold outside!
But as the day warms,
there are a couple more
outside fixtures to replace.
With the lighting done,
Mickey is ready to tackle the
challenge of preparing for the flagstone.

Step 1
Think it through.

Step 2
Prepare the forms.

Step 3
Level the forms.
I thought he said,
" I'm just furious!"
(Very unlike my husband.)
But, he had said,
"I'm just curious."
(Never repeat what you
think you heard.)
He was curious about
how level this area is.

The bad,
It needs a lot of work and
a BIG rock removed.
He moved rocks
and made it ready
for the gravel.
But the BIG rock is still challenging.
We can deal with it tomorrow.
Tomorrow is always a good day!

The good.
The lights look really pretty
and the ground prep is going well!
Tomorrow should bring the gravel!
