I'm toy-less right now too with with no funds for another stang, but got a new crib and a newly renovated backyard! My backyard actually just got finished this week while I was out of town...I'll post pics tonight.

Sucks not to have any stangs in the stable, but being able to enjoy a new house with family and friends is priceless. [Whoo Whooooo!]

I guess it pays to shop as a buddy of mine in the Oakland hills had pavers for a driveway , walk way and backyard done as at 10/sq foot. Also included some misc stuff like adding sod.Total job was 12k.
Here's the front. The owner branched off from system pavers and decided to open up his own

We paid 8k for everything. However, we did get a friend of a friend deal. I'm not sure what we would have paid if we were just regular customer. I had several other quotes just to replace the drive way and patio. No stamping or extending of the driveway like we did. Cheapest quote we got for that was $8,800.

So, I am sure the work we got would have been over $10k easy without the friend of friend discount. I'll throw some final pics up here soon. Been busy studying for finals.

I used to work at home depot. I always wondered what "Dobies" were used for!! LoL

Would a drive way using interlocking paver stones be easier and look better??

Paving stones are the cream of the crop. However, don't be fooled. That is a great looking paver job above, but I'm interested to see it in 5 years. Good chance it will no longer be even. Pavers are hard to make perfect, when you do they last forever.
