beach shack invention

we re-did our backyard several months back ... we had a lot of flagstone installed.

the initial plan was to install / maintain a fabulous ground plant (i am horrible with flora names) in-between the flagstone. but our gardener sucked at weeding (he was fired) and we're too lazy to do so ... in the end, i had the "flora" removed. we replaced it with pea gravel. of course, it was supposed to be sea glass and gravel, but the sea glass part just hasn't happened. again, lazy.

but i digress. so, even though there's pea gravel ... weeds still come up. bastards. joe's "rounded them up," but they keep coming.

so my husband is outside with a homemade blow torch. he's burning them up. he attached a nozzle to a propane tank. (super safe, i'm sure) he won't know until he reads this that i have some of the backyard action on video.

i wonder if i can post video here. it's priceless.
