A 2012 Spring Paver/Stone Project With Waterfall

Saturday, April 21st, 2012

This project completed in West Bloomington has a little bit of everything.  Nice main patio off sliding glass door for dining, grilling and a small planting area tucked behind an outcropped stone.  A small pondless waterfall in front of a few interesting fence sections provides a great surrounding noise cover and an excuse to relax.

Once the sun goes down there is a sunken fire pit patio reachable by irregular stone steps with stone outcroppings carefully place to eliminate the need for furniture. The stone wall and outcrops were constructed with a stone called Calgary, the pavers are an Anchor product called Charleston (non-tumbled) and the stone steps/edging stone, (Fond Du Lac and Chilton Limestone).
