Cat Bird Seat 30.3.3
This will be steps at some odd angles due to drainage needing to go underneath and some kind of link up with existing sidewalk.
Gravel needs raking and sloping more away from base of house; retaining walls on both sides.
extend the french drain to the stump, cover with combination of RR ties, gravel and plastic. Make steps straight up to slab, six feet wide or so.
West border of studio parking lot
I think go with RR tie. I do need a hardstand somewhere for working on vehicles and this would be a good location, but would have to actually do a pour for the whole lot, just this part would interfere with parking. Problem is that without concrete, nature has the upper hand and someone has to be constantly on the look out for plant invaders.

first exposure to daylight after initial cleaning
The initial cleaning off of the glue that held these pieces in place needed pics and small brushes. Still some left, plus more of the cardboard still to get out from where trapped. One effect not anticipated was that the glue line I had laid down would show. Perhaps I had intended, subconsciously. Mostl likely will try to fil those lines with colored epoxy as well as doing a coat over the whole vertical surface. A challenge for a medium that like sto self-level.
