The picture quality has improved GREATLY! Looks good!
What happened to the "can not be attached to the House" bit???
When I had a Stone Terrace done, they left a "Stones width" gap so they could come back AFTER inspections and "Attach", to the House.

You like that "Whistler". I doubt that many Inspectors in The States, would consider that "Unattached".
I am NOT meaning to be a Butthead, and certainly not tempting the Canadian/American line of relations, but, for all aspects rendered thus far, America would say "Attached".
It was only a question to begin with. NOT a Punch-In-The-Nose!!!
You are not mad at me for commenting on the high level of choice you made for a spouse???????????? If you are.......Think of this. She is Yours, not mine. The better man won!
Rod said it best "Some Guys Have All The Luck!!!............. Some Guys Do Nothing But Complain!!!"
Which one do you think you are?

A preview of better pictures to come. Tomorrow, I'm going to clean up the terrible pile of junk the guys left.
We are coming back to finish the lattice work and step after the snow is completely melted.

Maybe a little, if at all thanks to the freak weather.
