I got busy after a weekend of biking around Koocanusa Reservoir in Le Tour de Koocanusa (I highly recommend it for anyone who likes a well-organized, fun, and casual bike tour). So starting around noon on Sunday, I finished up this path in my fenced yard and got a feel for how all the hard work would pan out. I didn't opt for a super tight fit so I could use as many large pieces as possible - they're more stable and wiggle less over time. I'm going to stick with the pea gravel between pavers for now, but I expect it to settle some and not end up all over the stones constantly. Otherwise, a switch to sand alone (which is under the pea gravel) will be in order.

Laying the foundation. Thanks to my parents for digging the trench and filling it with gravel! |

More progress... |

Final product! It was all fairly easy to level, we'll see how it fairs over the seasons. |
