Wow, awesome!

Great job! Looks so peaceful there. :)

wow! especially love the pop of color with the chairs. Is there a firepit in the future?

haha @Marla - why yes, shopping for firepits now;)

I'm confused about the After picture. it shows a nearly entirely flat/level surface, both for the new seating area and immediate surroundings.

The Before picture shows a sizeable consistent slope, starting at the house and extending all the way down the hill and out of the picture frame.

How did the After landscape become a flat surface with no retaining walls?

Wow, you sure used your stay-at-home time well! What a sweet sitting area!

@Booty Bums (cute name, by the way) - it is very sloped, for sure. I have been making my own "dirt" for the last 8 years (I have 3 composting spots at the edge of the yard for fallen leaves, sticks, mowed lawn clippings, etc.) I moved the biggest rocks I could manage to sort of form a low retaining wall at the back of the seating area, filled it with dirt, then topped it with a few stepping stones & river rock pebbles. It's not completely level, as I don't own a level, but close enough that you don't feel crooked sitting there. haha

It looks great!

Let me know when you build the fire pit, I'll bring the ingredients for s'mores!

Awesome! Love what you did with the space!
