About a month ago Brian started in our front yard moving the rock from the front yard to the very back of the yard. I must say. It seems, looks and sounds like such a tedious job. WHY are we doing this? The real reason is, is that fact that our very back yard has nothing but dirt, our front yard was never leveled, nor compacted and we need to add a drain from our middle yard out to our front yard. (when it rains our middle yard does nothing but flood up to our patio.) And...... We are trying to save money doing it ourselves. I guess I really shouldn't say we? But I do help with the food and drinks during the day..... That has to count for something? The process is starting to pay off. Our very back yard and along our pool is now almost filled up with rock and the front yard is about half way done. We still have a lot to get done but it is nice to see improvement. My boys have been working hard.
They had a process of Vincent raking rocks into lines
then they both would shovel them into the wheel
barrow and Brian would go dump it. (Poor Vincent
wanted to do the wheel barrow but it was just too
darn heavy)
Really???? Don't get too dressed up for your work
out in the yard? We didn't want to complain. A
teenager working on a Saturday not complaining.....
The start of the pile in the very back yard..... Yeah..
more than just dirt!
The work day is always better with music. The funny thing
is that Brian had his playing in his pocket (without headphones)so
loud that I wonder if Vincent was really listening to his?
Eventually there will be a fire pit between the back fence
Palm tree.... YEah...
Brian......... Can we say exhausted. :(
I should have put this pic in the middle... This will be
the next project. To till and plant grass. UGH! It
never ends.
