Brick veneer over concrete walkway.
Rather than pulling up your original walkway you can simply adhere a thin piece of brick over the existing concrete making it look like a much more expensive full brick path.
My current plan based on my inadequate knowledge and some quick internet research is to attach galvanized mesh to the concrete using tapcon screws and plastic or ss washers and then to adhere half thickness bricks using adhesive mortar.
Use your shovel to get the sand into the concrete area and then smooth it out.
It should be thick enough that the brick pavers can fit down without being submerged.
Cover the entire concrete space in a thin layer of this sand.
