Thanks, Chicka, I really enjoyed doing it. Only one boy asked if I could put up a curtain!

I wanted to share my weekend project. I spent the weekend putting in a base for our outdoor shower. I had originally put some leftover ceramic tiles on the soil but it was nothing but mud for the second shower. So, I built a box (4'x3'9") from treated 2x6s. Then, I dug out under the showhead and installed the box. Next, I put about 4" of sand in the box and wet it down well to settle and level it. Finally, I set concrete pavers in the sand and filled in with pea gavel. It is just to the right of the rock garden I posted a week or so ago.

This is the area just to the right of the rock garden, you can just see the edge of it on the left side of the first pic. I worked hard on it, but a couple of Motrins and I'm good to go!

Bunny, what is this little weed/flower that grows out in the middle of the grass lawn?

love it! A shower curtain would be easy!!

any one have a recipe for smoked turkey tail? A recipe for smoked hog hocks might work too.

Thank you for sharing Oz. There is another word they like to use for strong women and it too starts with a b too. I never did understand the fear of a female leader, but then my parents had all daughters.

I like it. I have seen metal roofing used for the side of the stall for those more modest.

Looks like False Garlic to me.

The shower looks great. A beach house isn't complete without an outdoor shower, of course, so I've seen floors of many kinds around here. That's one of the nicest I've seen! Good job!

Thats a great looking shower!!

I love our outdoor shower. Without it the kids would be tracking sand all day. There is nothing quite as irritating as exfoliating from sand in your bed at night

Ours has a 2" drain going to a sand trap

BTW, tell the 1 boy to just turn to the wall, and a towel can be a friend on the way in and out.
