2009/365/258 Good Fit
I've finished the major work on my natural stone walkway, trying to make a path parallel to the new car port towards the fence gate. All of the rock came from the yard (where you cannot insert a shovel without hitting a block or boulder of Coconino sandstone).
It is kind of fun to try and piece them together, finding rewards like here with rocks of difference breeds/shapes manage to come together.
Holding them together is the local fine grained dirt, which when dry approaches concrete holding power.

Love the new walkway. Looks great.

Way to go!, what an accomplishment! Nice the local dirt helps. Was going to suggest growing fresh thyme in the crevices - makes a great aroma when walked on, stays pretty much in the grooves and keeps the weeds out - but sounds like you won't need that help.

Thanks for the suggestion! Weeds are definitely a problem here, but with first frost a few weeks away I might wait til spring thyme.
