The path less traveled – part II

Paver project – Day 3:
The day was a bit of a disappointment, but that’s the weather in the Pacific Northwest! Gino ended up working outside by himself in the pouring rain. We purchased 3 truck loads of a gravel/sand mix and then rented a compactor to compress the mix between the 3 loads.

There was a slight break in the rain so Isabel is helping daddy “compact” gravel/sand mix.
