New back steps

[kyrielle]

The steps to the lower back yard are finally done. (For those who remember, yes, the original plan was to finish by mid-May, "weather permitting". Yes, this is the first time the freaking weather has permitted. It's been insane. But they did very quick, efficient, attractive work once mother nature actually let them have at it.)

Here are photos of it, first day one (all the framing done, but the gravel not in yet) and then the final product. I think they look pretty nice but I'll be happier when the yard around them is more finished also! Click through for larger views.

No clue! To be honest, I wasn't paying attention while they were filling them. I'll bet they did not use a wheelbarrow, though. I wouldn't, for that slope (and it would leave wheelbarrow tracks on the upper yard, forcing them to repair that damage, but that's minor). Frankly I do not think you COULD for that slope. It's so steep you had to be careful to scramble down it by yourself. My guess would be there were buckets involved, but I really don't know.
