Best shot of Patio in Progress

Not finished yet, but getting closer. Sunday afternoon we built the landing, finished the walkway edge past the landing and semigraded the slope of dirt (soon-to-be-flower-bed) between octogonal deck and landing. We also put in a nice 6X6 timber to help frame out the newBarb was a mason for the first time, laying the second course of cement block retaining wall. We have ideas to finish off the landscape of that new flower bed.

New landing to upper deck

Standing on the rectangular patio - the walkway to landing to the upper deck. The next shot like this one, you'll see the finished new flower bed to the left. The pathway will continue on the right to the firepit.

The new landing

You can't see much of either deck, but a good shot of the landing and the newly planted small flower garden (3 hostas and impatients for color)
