We have the hardest time getting grass to grow so we decided to add a patio and fire pit to reduce some of the area we have to fight the crappy soil in our yard. Of course, our resident handyman, Dave, did all the work. I am way behind on my blog, so even though I wrote this in June of 2018, we have actually been enjoying this patio for a year now! It was built in the Spring of 2017.
