So my original intent when I started this a couple years ago was to fill in between the wood with aggregate. Given my current health issues, and the fact that I’ll likely need to clear the snow, I decided to change the pathway to wood.
This is what it looked like when we bought the house.

The cheapest quickest thing at the time was to just sod everything.

Next year I got the flower beds started

Fence and gate

More flower beds

Still grass

And the start of the pathway

If you have any particular questions, feel free to ask.


I mean it’s almost taken my hand off a few times… it’s really windy so I tensioned the spring more than it should be.
