Installing Terraced Retaining Walls with Natural Impressions Landscape Bricks

 We have now built three terraces on the south easterly side of the hillside.  We had quite a discussion about what to do next, but in the end - decided to just proceed around the top level - moving towards the north.  Then, we will work forward on the other terraces and wrap them around, as well.  Already I am realizing the 8 pallets of brick I ordered will not be enough.  I took every brick they had in stock at Home Depot when I ordered.  I hope I will be able to get more!
Here is another day's progress on the top level.  We are now removing timbers as we go so it doesn't all erode while we walk on it carrying bricks and gravel up the hillside.

This is looking wonderful so far, it's going to be beautiful when it's finished. Lot of hard work but worth it.

I can't wait for this to be finished. I totally agree with the other comment, it's looking good so far. Looks like it needs a huge amount of work but i'm definitely sure it will look totally awesome once it's done.
