Okay so this is what Ive been working on for the past two months. My hubby and I finally tackled the backyard retaining wall project. We were racing against the weather. We wanted to make sure it was finished before the first snow. So luckily we completed the task in two weeks (after the ground was all dug up) prior to Thanksgiving. Whew! Im so tired of shoveling dirt and gravel and stone. LEt me tell you -major grunt work! UGH! OUr backs were so sore every morning. Some mornings we were whinning just prior to crawling to the shower! lol. So its finished except for the wall caps and the drainage pipes out to the alley way. Kewl huh. thank you auntie and uncle for all those HAndyman magazines! A very valuable resource!
