We've always disliked the walkway to our house. It is( or was) a gravel walk with stepping stones lined with landscaping timbers. Every time it rains, the stones would become submerged and to get into the house we have to walk through water. I finally got a solution to this problem we both like and I spent Thursday and Friday working on it by myself with help from K. Saturday and Sunday.
I think the wooden boardwalk really adds a lot to the place, and now at least we won't be tracking in wet shoes everytime it rains.
