Drainage is a good tip. I have never done this before. What do you think
of this? The ground is level clay and is covered with 2 inches of mulch.
On top of this mulch, I will place 1'x4"X4" brick. That gives me 6
inches to play with. I could remove the mulch and put 2 inches of pea
gravel and then 4 inches of granite, wet and tamp down with roller.(in
layers) The granite would be 2 inches off the ground on pea gravel and
side insulated by brick.

I have had some good feedback from 3-4 of ya'll. Now that the mulch
floor is in, I can start planning a granite path for the wheelchaired
visitors at the school. I agree with 2 of ya'll about stuff sprouting
in the granite. I like that too. But I will have to not do that as it i=

a public place.
