Default Need Advice on Cobblestones

Peter, you can probably get by for several years by just
removing the sod.
Lay down a cover of weed blocker landscape fabric.
Lay down your stones and sweep sand into the cracks.
It's a very casual path but not as short lived as you might think.

If your stones are different thickness you can put down a layer
of sand first and then you can easily adjust the height of the
different stones to achieve a fairly level walking surface.

This is a very low skill project!
If you have bad knees and cannot get down in the dirt very easily
I suggest hiring a neighborhood boy to help.

If your path is going to be in your lawn you would need some
sort of edging to help keep the grass from creeping in from
the sides.

Good luck!
Peace!
