We are going to have to take the stuff off the truck ourselves, so I'm going to call on my son-in-law to help. Then it will have to be piled up in our yard until the handyman we hired comes to put it up. We estimate that it will take 2 days to put together, but the instructions made me cross-eyed. I'm sure it makes sense for a builder, though. At least I hope so.

Tomorrow the gravel comes in, which you have to have to level the area and provide drainage. We'll have to walk wheelbarrows full of gravel around the house to the site--4" covering a 11x16 space. I'm far from a neat freak, but I can't stand to see the yard in disarray, so I hope that's kept to a minimum, and that it cleans up well after all is said and done.

I'll keep you posted!
It sounds like it will be worth it at the end but wow, that's a process!! I hate it when things get disrupted, so I'm always putting off house projects just for that reason.
