Holding up the town truck	There goes the cherry stump	Sculpting
Collecting some sizeable rocks Driveway cloth in foreground	Holding up the apple root wad and Nate is going for his chainsaw	The first load of fine gravel. *
*A load of bankrun was already spread at the top of the driveway. He works about 10' in front of the driveway cloth, pulling the gravel toward him, then unrolls another 10' and so on. Apple trunk in foreground. Pile of excavated topsoil in background. That is for me to use as fill. Besides the apple, Nate tore up a few more trees and I processed all the slash and hauled it to the burn pile in three wagon loads.
Long view up the new driveway	The day is over for this baby.	3/4 stone in place, has to be tamped tomorrow


Nate dug out 5 boulders from Dean & Nancy's yard and they are mine now.	No amount of flooding will wash these boulders away!	The bank will be built up with more boulders like these--eventually.
Digging out the frog pond.	The slab is done--curing too fast in this heat so Glenn recommended I water it down a few times a day. I have 6 full buckets standing by. I ordered a Simer 2305 Geyser II 1/4 HP Submersible Utility Pump today. $54.36 from Amazon, free shipping. I am in need of old carpeting to use as a protective liner under my pond liner. Ed gave me a 6x10 piece--need quite a bit more.	Nate finished with the excavator and drove it off. He came back with the skid steer to finish up. Before he took the excavator away he dug my frog pond, dug out Deans' boulders, broke up a piece of ledge at the corner of my property where I could never mow, tore out the maple stump and dug a hole for the redbud I need to plant on the south side of the house. Lots of stuff happened today.
Fenced the garden		My personal highway
20 July: Today's project- finishing the wall and planting the magnolia	The redbud, planted a few days ago	21 July - Flynn down and outside

A layer of carpet underlayment. Got it used from a carpeting store but it was like new.	Laid in 45 mil epdm pond liner. I bought a 20x15 piece for $192 (123ponds.com) in April 2011. 85 lbs. UPS delivery.	Trimming excess
Filling with water and rocks	5 Aug	18 Aug
