The beginning of our yard work and deck building

And it has begun. The first steps of deck building and landscaping. We rented an augur to dig some holes, rented a cement mixer so we could fill holes with cement and placed some poles in the ground for the deck. Now we move onto putting in edging, laying down plastic and covering it with rock, planting grass and then getting back to the deck and finishing it. Dave is chomping at the bit to get to his deck but we have to get the landscaping done first, he calls that the work and the deck will be fun.

 

 Big boys and their toys.

 A big "gofer" attached our yard.

We had some good little hard workers. They'll remember this summer well. Shoveling dirt!
