Today was the first day (out of two, hopefully!) of our demolition of the front step. It was very rotted and wobbly. My parents offered to help us with the project -- the above picture is of my father taking the sledge hammer to the step. And the bees, yes, they were killed (although not by me). There were over 100 of them!! We eventually found the queen and about 50 eggs deep down inside the step. Quite an ugly but sad sight. My father got stung twice.
Tomorrow we will pour the new step using Quikrete cement mix and apply the paver stones. We want to re-do our entire walk and stone wall in paver stones but, one project at a time. We hope to have the entire thing completed by the end of the summer.
