    You don't want any doggie foot prints?

    It looks beautiful Sandie! We just replaced ours in May and what a difference! We were told to wait one week before driving on it but could walk on it the next day. I like the idea of a doggie footprint somewhere! Oh, and the contractor told us to not use salt products on it in the wintertime to get rid of ice (it is concrete like yours). I am wondering what we will do since my front walk (which was also replaced) is in the shade of the house and the sun can never reach it to melt it. I guess we will just fall a lot this winter!

    LOL, nope, no doggie or kittie pawprints. I DID have them put in the year 2009, in a nonconspicuous place.

    Pam, instead of salt you can use the Ice Melt stuff - it is concrete-safe, paw-safe and works great!

    Looks great Sandie. Quite a difference from the previous job!

    Come on everybody - use Ice Melt - please!!! Broken hips are no fun - just ask me. Ice was my downfall (no pun intended)!

    LOL! Ellie! Sorry to have a laugh at your expense but that was a good one. Thanks for the heads up on Ice Melt. I fell a couple of years ago in the parking lot at work on some ice. Wound up chipping off the tip of my elbow.

    Pam, I don't mind you laughing about it. I do all the time - now anyway...

    Hoping for a mild winter here. I get paranoid anymore even when there is a heavy frost.

    Ouchie on the elbow!!!
