The Supervisor.

This is what 11 TONS of Class II looks like. Yes, tons.

Partway In.

John & Brandon.

Rest time.

Monday Evening Progress

Zoe, completely undisturbed to the changes in her backyard. She enjoyed a rest on top of one of the mounds of dirt and even helped with a little digging.

Peonies, pretty behind the mound of dirt!

As it stands, Monday 8PM. After some profesional consulting today we are 100% certain we are on the right track. Almost through staking and leveling. 10.75 tons of class II along with 1.75 tons of sand get delivered tomorrow afternoon!

Sunday, Digging the Hole

Just about finishing up for the day. Huge thanks to John & Shannon for their incredible work!

Charlie, helping out, I think mostly because he could not resist the lure of big tools when the Dingo was delivered.

Brandon & Charlie.

Zach, supervising.

Strategizing.

Planters, Sunday May 30, 2010

They are growing like crazy! Our compost must be working.

Saturday, A Day Of Work

The two toughest workers of the day take a rest.

Beginning of the morning...Master of the power tools.Less talk, more action boys!PROGRESSOOPS!Now for the major power tools.

Looks like a city crew to me!After some discussion that he definately had used a jackhammer before, Charlie takes his turn.

And his turn is done.

Where it stands, late afternoon, Saturday!

Cooling off

A moment of calm...

Crazy Man

At least he has perfected his splashing method in all of his swimming lessons...

Making Nice

What you don't see is two seconds after this picture he (1) grabbed Madeline's tongue and (2) geared up for a major splashing fest that sent both the dogs running.

Poor Dogs

Jack had fun in his kiddie pool, splashing and torturing all 3 animals.

BLOOMING!

It has been five years but we finally have a flower on this plant!

South side of yard

Easy part is done! Planted: Tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, onions, brussel sprouts, snap peas, cucumbers, and a climbing vine in the middle.

Reading

He spent so much time with this book I think he can teach us a thing or two about preserving!
