Had to drop the yard level 18" for zoning , then refill with topsoil . "Flood zone" can you belive it ? Me on top of a hill [crazy] .
Were filling in the side of the hill for parking and the old parking in front of the house will become a lawn .The retaining wall should be finished in about a week . Another 30 yards of fill dirt should do the trick and then a few loads of crushed concrete before we asphalt it .
Gutters will be going up this weekend , so will the rest of the front lawn and a few fruit trees . More pines will fall by friday evening in the back .
The old deck in back comes out next week , the new deck begins in a couple weeks .The old deck is being recycled , the wood will be used to make some confortable deer blinds [cool] .
Stumpgrinding is going to be the worst of it , I'm not looking forward to that chore at all .
