    But won't it look gorgeous when it's done! Congratulations on being such a grown-up!

    (And I suspect you'll still find money somewhere for more toys.)

      That's gonna look really nice when it's done Rolf! Good thing you waited until you already had most of the toys you wanted.

        Wow Dorothy could do some fancy hop skip and jumps on that sweeeet looking "brick road."
        Looks great so far, and as you already know we would love to see more pictures when it is completed.

          Yup, lots of toys there. Looks great though. The neighbours will be knocking on your door to help them.

            That is beautiful.
            Wish I had the talent to complete something like that.

            It's all fun

                OK, I concede that not EVERYTHING can be done using only a scroll saw and sanders!

                  That is really nice Rolf. That is what my husband Robert does for a living.
                  I'm sure you will be able to buy toys and you will be smiling as you drive home and not trip over a broken driveway.

                    That looks really good. Mine is a boring cement drive, wish you'd make a copy of that for me!

                        Dude! There are times when I actually spend money on something and when I am done or when the project is done I step back and say "Wow! I love the stuff money can buy!" I can 'hear' that voice coming through your writing. That is an awesome project!!! Congratulations on a well made decision and ~ as they say ~ money well spent!!!

                          Hi Rolf - that's a beautiful job you've had done. Well laid pavers are also my idea of a really stylish and long lasting path and they just get better looking with age.

                          Next job is the garden?
                          Hmmm, definitely no tool money for a good while methinks !

                            That 's lookin' awesome...
                            Would you care to share the pattern...

                            Seriously though... That's the right way to do a driveway and path....

                              Looks great so far Rolf, when do we get to see the final results?
