Reuse: stairs from old concrete blocks

A neighbor who was replacing an old concrete patio and driveway generously let us partake of the remains.


Which enabled us to create a stairway out of reused concrete blocks, to reach a previously inaccessible part of our yard.

I love how the concrete creates a pretty almost waterfall-like landscape element. My husband is a total hero for schlepping and placing all the blocks. Thank goodness for his strong back and willingness to break a sweat. Here's views from the top and the bottom of the stairs.
