After we carried first truck load of bricks to backyard we wanted to see how it will create a curved wall and what is the comfortable seat height.
We did not want to make something cuts your back side of your legs. So we gave it a try.

Bricks on the driveway

We received two semi trucks of bricks on two weekends, both weekends it rained. Truck driver was willing to ride on the grass area if it was not raining past two days. His forklift and a brick pallet would total 5 tons that would sink in to grass easily. We had to carry all the bricks to backyard with barrels. I was willing to work and loose weight and reduce cholesterol so here is the opportunity. I believe at this point my neighbors start to think their neighbor is crazy.

Deniz and Bora get excited and start to digg.

Here some pictures of how Deniz and Bora get excited and start to digg. Our big project started officially with Bora's toys. It was May 4th 2008
