Stepping Stone Patio



I saw a great plan in one of my gardening magazines that showed stepping stones laid down in grassy areas to privide a subtle feeling of an open patio space for a shady area. Since I had previously dug five stepping stones straight out from the shed, I decided to buy 10 additional stepping stones to create a larger area.



Tonight I laid out the stones, and tomorrow I'll measure them exactly to be sure they are placed symmetrically before I dig out the sod and place them in the ground. I'll be able to mow over them, also, and this scheme will also keep the grass from being soggy and wet in the fall, winter and spring months. I can't wait to get going on this tomorrow! I love Saturdays!
