Beautiful!
Perfect spot for a staycation. If my DH would build decks and patios like that, I would never leave home.
Nice work!

It's easier to dig a hole for a hosta but you can't sit on the hosta (at least not around here :eek: ) and drink beer.
Coming over sometime and visit Paul??
thanks everyone -- my boy and I put a lot of work into this ........... :beer:
