The intent was to make the stone work look like it's been there a very long time, while keeping the blacktop slab that was already there for the patio. The cobbles are all from Newport and are quite old and quite irregular. Everything from excavation to tamping was done by hand

And Flap, if I was a flag I wouldn't have used old cobbles. You can't walk on 'em with high heels

Spence, that looks great. Nice work!

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan
