Rock slabs are off the trailer & I am still in one piece - no slipping/falling on the ramp.
I have 4 slabs & of course one of the “bloody” slabs has to be an oddball ... 24” x 30” rather than 30” square. I will figure something out - I have some smaller pieces & may be able to jigsaw a solution.

Progress is SLOW ... I had all 4 slabs set, but the ground sloped off so bad I had to use a lot of shims on 2 for them to work ... big no no on trail rock work because shims can shift. I decided to buy some dirt & build up where the ground sloped off, which was the right way to do it. The first 2 slabs against the foundation are good so I had to wrangle the 2 on the end back off, get dirt down, try to level it off, & reset the rocks. The last rock is 24" x 30" instead of 30" x 30" so I will have to close that gap. I intend to extend the stone to the right with some smaller pieces, so that will give me an opportunity to close the gap.
Three down, one to go! I must say that stepping out of the door on the big slabs is a world of difference & a real pleasure after what was there before!
A reminder of "before":
PS - I will be forever grateful for the 'shingles' tip!! No grass will grow between these slabs!
