Hi All, I have a sloped backyard with a gravel pathway which has slowly been eroding after each rain storm. I have a gutter end-spout that is on the elevated portion of the pathway...thus, the main reason why water naturally travels down the pathway. What are my options to limit or even eliminate this issue in the future? 1) Would a catch basin be effective? 2) Attach an even longer gutter downspout that carries ALL the water down and away from the path? 3) Or should I completely rebuild this and install a Honeycomb Pathway Stabilizer Grid (with a heavy-duty landscape fabric barrier as the base)?

I finished laying patio with Belgard stones from Lowes. They have these small tabs to provide spacing I assume... Spacing between pavers is about 1/8". Now I got buckets of polymeric sand, and in the instruction it says minimum gap needs to be 1/4". Does it mean it won't hold? What should I do? I'm confused :(
