paving...good

So, I had a "consult" with my super awesome neighbor about the chicken coop this morning and I've basically decided to put shake shingling on the sides and stain the shingling. This should a) make it look much better and b) provide some insulation during the summer and winter. I'm feeling like this could actually happen now.

In other news...I finally got around to paving the area from my back door to the winter compost pile. I know I should have done this last fall before the ground got soggy, but better late than never, right?

The backyard pre-path.

With the path!

And here is a bonus corgi picture with my filthy kitchen.
