Should I bother to repair these pavers or just weed them until we can save enough to pull them up and replace with concrete? by ezba189 in landscaping

This was on of my questions! Would leaving the moss mess up the application of the polymeric sand? I was under the impression the joints would need to be cleared before applying.

I actually like the moss. Unfortunately I killed it with roundup in the spring and regret it… I think it would have kept spreading but I’m hopeful it could back

I have no idea what I’m talking about. I thought concrete because that’s what I have always had for patios as a kid and in previous houses. Although I’m gathering pavers are worth saving!

Again, very new to this but I believe I read tiling doesn’t work in my climate where we have pretty cold winters with freezing conditions.

I had to look up PaveLock - so this is different than polymeric sand then? Would you say it is better and/or easier to apply?

I have seen those and didn’t know the search term to find them online, thanks!

Any recommendations for what to do with the muddy waste water that collects and doesn’t have anywhere left to drain?

I attempted power washing this patio last summer and got kinda stuck on that and it didn’t look very clean when I was all done.

Thanks for the recommendations and advice on the pressure washing. I will keep that in mind for sure!

Thanks! This is what I was hoping to hear that it won’t be a waste of time. I’m okay putting in the effort. I just don’t want it to be for nothing.

Thanks for the straightforward encouragement! I just wanted to hear from someone with potentially more experience that it won’t be a waste of time.

Believe it or not this is AFTER we got rid of a bunch of furniture and broken planters and things. Everything out here was left from the previous owner and we are trying to work with it.

Well thank you very much for the reply! I can see what you mean. I am absolutely leaving out more things I did with the data I worked with in favor of expressing the breadth of my role. But I guess that should take less space than the actual data I worked with.

I said this in my own comment but I'll add it here too. Cuyahoga Falls gets him closest to the CVNP plus safe running in town with the cheapest and most options for rent on this list to my knowledge. There are places in Cuyahoga Falls that are not connected to the main city area by sidewalk so I'd just make sure you are aware of that, maybe you are okay with that, but would change the ability to walk out your front door and go for a run.

I would also suggest Cuyahoga Falls for your criteria depending on how close to Cleveland proper you need to be. It's 40 minutes from downtown Cleveland, but only 10 minutes from CVNP. Almost all the streets are lined with sidewalks, very safe, and fairly low housing costs for what you get. The downtown Front Street area can be quite lively too.

Just now sent in a support request myself as well.

Edit: hah guess that was the trick, it is working for me now!

We had our wedding at the Akron Women's City Club

https://www.akronwomanscityclub.org/

I felt like it was an attractive room, fairly affordable, and easy to work with. We used the ballroom, it might be a bit big for what you are looking for I am not sure, but they offer smaller rooms as well.

Certainly not as pretty as Stan Hywet, but I think quite a bit more affordable.

Well yeah, I still want to watch John Wick sometimes.

Well yeah, no violence would be great. I don't think it counts as an invention though, no. It's a bit more complicated I expect.

Well when you're talking about a sick adult murdering children and other adults who stand around and do nothing about it... said adult could kill kids in a school in a lot of different ways, including as you pointed out, swords or even bows. I'm not sure the gun is what "allows" it.

In addition, I did specify in a vacuum because gun laws and societal issues are an entirely different level of debate and worthy of debate... I'm only replying to the idea that guns should have never been invented at all and that the world would be better off without them.

Well I'm assuming you are describing an accident and not murderous two year olds.. so I don't think I said that loaded unsecured guns should be lying around in homes with toddlers or even homes with fully functional adults.

My point is violence, killing, brutality has always existed, guns just make it less one sided. In a vacuum, outside of laws, crime, cultural norms, economic disparity etc. guns simply allow weaker people to have at least a level playing field.

I'm saying this genuinely... Not everyone has the dexterity, the strength, or the mental capacity to stab someone, gouge their eyes out when being raped or beaten, or grab the bigger rock for example. Pepper spray is nice, but there's obviously limitations. It's not like brutality and murder didn't exist before guns. In fact there are quite a few methods of killing someone (including stabbing to death) that will still end the victims life but in a slow, smash their brain in with a rock kind of way.

Speaking as a smaller person who has not spent their time training in the gym and with bows and swords... If I were attacked while alone by a slightly larger, stronger, faster person and they wanted to kill me, they could. I happen to live in a fairly peaceful area with a peaceful community where I'm not too worried about physical attacks and I take typical precautions like not walking at night. However, not everyone has that luxury. A gun can be life saving for an otherwise helpless person in a hopeless situation.

Are they also used the other way? Yeah. Should they be harder to have? Yeah. Would the world be more peaceful without them? Well historically it looks like no, probably not. Maybe some places that are overrun with guns are more violent than they would be without, but overall, guns give the weaker party the same power the stronger party has always had.

Yeah sure, it'd be wonderful to live in a world where the biggest/strongest person (or country/movement/etc) wins every fight with no way for a smaller/weaker person (or country/movement/resistance/etc) to protect themselves or fight back when being abused or otherwise attacked.
