I think the worst part of the project is transferring
by hand and wheelbarrow a ton of bricks.
Getting the firepit level was also a HUGE challenge!

But...we did it.
Next, tilling the incredibly rocky soil...again.

Then, we tamped it down...again. Next, start laying
those lovely bricks :)
What's that?? You are sensing some hostility??
No way, I, uh, love this project.
Since we were making the extension circular, there
was a lot of cutting involved. And, I must say,
Ryan did a phenomenal job!
We had to measure and cut every brick around
the pit and...
of course, every brick around the edge of the circle,
as well.
We are nearing the home stretch!!!!!
Tada!
The final product:
Worth all the pennies, sweat, and tears.

We love it! Thank goodness :)
Holy cow that looks awesome. It's huge. I have to say, you guys do good work. Our's is almost finished, we just have to finish up the fire pit a lil bit and it will be done. Well maybe, I think we are going to seal it as well to make it look wet all the time, but then it will be done. I guess you guys know how that goes. Well we can't wait to come vistit you guys in Jan. Speaking of which, we need to get a week picked out that will work for all of us. Anyways, talk you you guys soon and we miss you. ENJOY THE FIRE PIT
