Backyard patio update

Friday evening I was able to get the "water feature" in and working. The fountain is a large stone speckled with quartz. There is a hole drilled through it and it sits on a pedestal in the water. A pump circulates water up a plastic hose through the drilled hole. It sounds and looks great.


Put in patio edging all around. The edging should keep the stones from wandering apart. So all the stone is in place. Now I need to partially fill the space between with dirt which I'm filtering to remove rocks and weeds.

Then I'll fill the cracks with a special sand that will bind the whole thing together.
