The Mom bought a house in a hilly area, and the
patio stones were overlapping, so I leveled them,
well the next year they were overlapping again.
Turns out the lawn was flowing toward the house.
And the homes had actually shifted 6" or so with
the flow.
So I pulled all the stones and laid out PT 2x4's,
remounted the stones (~60 2'x2' =>10x24) and
put a small trench around it. Anyway sure enough
the trench was noticely narrower the next year.
