I saw the problem when he set it up but figured if I stuck my head in the sand it would all work out. yeah...not so much.<br /><br />What do you mean by 'colored' and what size is it (pea, quarter, etc)? I'm not sure that I have a use for it, though...katinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658859113915782535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6063603353608031817.post-47875915608666873082013-03-31T22:52:22.851-05:002013-03-31T22:52:22.851-05:00If only you knew a civil engineer that could have ...If only you knew a civil engineer that could have foreseen that problem, I say in jest.<br /><br />I have a lot of smooth, colored river gravel left over from a former project if you want some. Let me know if you do and I'll fill some buckets up and you can have them.

I think I've decided the problem is that I'm doing too many changes in too short of a period of time. He doesn't have a chance to like something before I'm onto the next project. So if I get a pathway put in on the left side of the yard relatively quick like and then do nothing except plant plants, maybe he'll get better.katinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658859113915782535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6063603353608031817.post-4118988992076815542013-03-20T21:01:43.882-05:002013-03-20T21:01:43.882-05:00Good job, Girl.

We'll deal with that when it's empty. <br />It's amazing how little rain it takes to fill one of these up.<br />Maybe that will open some eyes....Linda/patchworkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12639872362919575736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6063603353608031817.post-74446814616079435462013-03-20T18:34:35.258-05:002013-03-20T18:34:35.258-05:00I really like the rock a lot.

Are you confident that it is stable? I'd LOVE to put a rain barrel in place but lo, I have no gutters. I do have a rain barrel and if I cannot put it in place to collect rainwater I am playing with the idea of turning it into a compost bin.Robertahttp://www.mulish.typepad.com/noreply@blogger.com
