New Steps:

 

When we moved here there were rocks that served as steps that lead down to our basement.  The rocks were hazardous as they would end up with debris on them that made them slippery. Also the guy who put in the cement pad left a gap under the pad and it was only a matter of time before the slab broke and it and we would go sliding down the hill. 

I'm putting in cement steps anchored to the ground so it will be safer to go down to the basement. Five steps done and four more to go.  Falling down that hill would not end well and getting those rocks out of there is a chore but will make it much safer. Doing it in 90 degree heat with high humidity is a challenge however. 

It is our plan to put those white decorative rocks on both sides to enhance the looks.
