Looks great Sir Henry, especially the distance shot with the house included. The new shelter fits in nicely.

It will look even nicer with these rocks lining the bottom of the dirt and flowers growing.

Those are some good sized rocks. How will you move them? The bigger ones look too big for your front end loader to pick up.

My tractor is rated at 1,900 pounds. I’m guessing some of the rocks are bigger than that. If needed I may just roll them. If that doesn’t work a neighbor has a bigger Ford and if that doesn’t work he also has a D8 Cat.

I ordered more rock. This time they are 12-18” instead of 18-24”. I also bought some nice Vietnamese pots.

Additionally I’m getting an estimate on a 20/30/50 RV electrical post. This place is really starting to come together.

It certainly is Gene, and it looks great!

I’m getting the RVport wired today. Currently I’m running a 30 amp 110v extension cord plus two 15 amp cords to it. I’m having a 100 amp (20/30/50) rv outlet installed inside the shed. It will be both 110 and 220 volts. The motor home takes a 50 amp 220. The extra 15 and 30 plug ins will be for outside lights and such. Here is the current post.

I’m leaving the 30 amp on the wood post there mainly because it’s already there.

It’s taken me about a month to move the rocks into place

That’s beautiful Gene, almost like a contemporary Norman Rockwell painting. Well done, the boulders look great.
