Pole barn/work shop should be started in 1-2 weeks, 24 stumps to grind this Saturday. I have removed 28 trees from behind and to the right side of where the workshop will go( can't see most of the removal on the right).
Need to cut the bank down once stumps are ground this weekend and lots of tractor work to the right( will have more pictures later), and need to get this done before planting starts and laying plastic in the field
The work that will be done to the right will lead to the back of the house where I need to do lots of landscaping.

The work has not even started, there is a lot you can't see in this picture.
I have a friend who grinds stumps and has a stump grinder. If I can remember I will take some pictures this Saturday of him grinding.

The Right Side has to be turned into something resembling the Left side. I did the Left side last year. It was an overgrown fence row with huge stone piles and hawthorn bushes. An excavator did the big work and I did the landscaping. The right side was supposed to get done, I just ran out of time. It's worse then it looks and the chaos extends right down to the concession road at the far end. Millions of stone and tree roots!
The hardest part is getting around the trees. Were it not for that, this job would be quite easy!

Just a before picture, but it was much, much worse.
I had him dig a small hole, took him like twenty minutes and put all the pesky stones in there. Not only did he fill the hole, but I made quite a sizeable burm.

Man, these pictures sure make make me long for those warm summer days. There really is nothing I would rather do then this sort of thing. But you couldn't pay me a million bucks to do it for someone else!

1000 years from now some archaeologist is going to stumble across that hole full of rocks and wonder what kind of historical significance it has! :laughing::laughing:
