Working In The Yard
Instead of going to the range today I decided to work in the yard. The range opened on Friday and from what I hear it is very busy. Tomorrow will be my range day.
In the meantime I continue to work on my yard.
I’m borrowing the neighbors gator to move the second 14 yard load of gravel. This path needs widening so I can get the gator through. On the first load of gravel I drove around the house. This is where I’m dumping most of it. I have a vintage Fiber-Steam travel trailer I’m going to park here. I have also put some in the upper pathways.
Here is my lawn art I made with old metal bed frames.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Working In The Yard
The Gator is great but that shovel looks awful. Wish I was closer, I could give you a hand with my tractor with loader. Bummer.
However, your place looks great and that vintage trailer is going to be a nice addition. You certainly have an artists touch with your deco!!!

Re: Working In The Yard
I’m back to shoveling gravel after a morning of range time. I want to put this trailer..........
Still a lot of gravel to shovel and then rocks to move. I want it to look like it is sitting on a rock foundation. Might even build a primitive shelter over it.

It will go where the burn pile is on the left.Still a lot of gravel to shovel and then rocks to move. I want it to look like it is sitting on a rock foundation. Might even build a primitive shelter over it.

No it should come even with the orange barrel with maybe the tongue hanging forward of it.

Re: Working In The Yard
I burned the wood and moved the rock. I still need to spread more gravel but the space is almost ready for the trailer.
I removed the rocks from around the base of the trailer and can be hitched to the gator anytime.
I still need to throw another load of gravel on the ramp and put some timbers on the grass/dirt to keep the trailer level while backing it into position.
My goal is to move it next Saturday with help from four neighbors. Once it’s in position rock will need to be moved back into position under the trailer. I might not have enough and might just order another 16 tons.

Sir Henry,
As soon as I read 16 tons this song leapt to mind.
