What I want to do is to create a papercrete short garden wall(s) (probably about 2' high and 4' wide - arched ea.) to plant along my granite hill to add some good dirt and flowers to dot the side of my hill and make use of some good water run off. Also, I plan to have "stairs" dug in the dirt going up the hill where I would like to make some papercrete stepping stones to make it easier to get up that hill.
