Janet, There are many more brick to come, these are only the 1st 500. LOL I have a good size wisteria that has been sprawling over my driveway for quite a few years now and I asked Ric to build me a large arbor. It will be 14 X 14 feet and span part of the parking area between the patio and my potting shed. Ric decided to remove the stone from the driveway and replace it with brick. He says he is only doing the 14 X 14ft area which is about 1/2 of the driveway, waiting to see if he stops there. He says it will be a fall project but we will be traveling for 5 weeks between the end of August and the middle of Nov so I have no idea when this fall he thinks he will work on it. I had been hoping /expecting to have the arbor up before the wisteria bloomed this spring but that just didn't happen. So now I'm looking forward to next spring. This is the area that will be bricked and covered with the arbor. I don't park the car down this far anymore as it has become more of a work area with the potting shed sitting there, the storage area with a grow light set up and all my gardening things. I keep my flats and other plants in this protected area while they are hardening off or waiting to be planted.
