Day 14.167: Protopatio

We had wanted to do something with this little corner ever since we removed the defunct hot tub and added stairs down from this side of the deck.

The situation was made more urgent when the fence posts started to fail and the fence was in danger of collapsing altogether.

On Friday work started - first removal of the old fence:

Then new fence posts and preparations for laying a patio:

Hopefully it will be a big improvement when it's finished.
