My pit is also about 2’ deep. It’s roughly 9’ round

Helped a neighbor who wanted to extend a retaining wall. Took out about 4 or 5 feet of embankment and used some of the dirt to build up the approach to his carport. He had about a 5" lip where the gravel and dirt had just worn away or become compacted over time. We made a bit of a drain just beyond the point where the gravel/dirt edge is to get better water runoff and then finished by compacting the dirt and respreading the gravel over it.

This is probably child's play for most of you guys but it was quite a challenge for me. I've never done anything like this before and it was difficult to manage the tractor, bucket and edge all at the same time. Not to mention all the other hazards liked parked vehicles and such. I have a new respect for those that move dirt for a living.

Got the tractor stuck in a Spring seep last week. The boys wanted to smear some of the mud arround. Very little mud was removed! :laughing:

Got mine and my neighbor's bottom pastures raked yesterday. Got pasture seed spread in neighbor's field. Wind came up before we could get mine spread. Going to be windy today too. Maybe next weekend we can get mine done. Hoping for some rain next few days. Going to finish some spring clean up stuff today.

That is a great pic that will be around for generations. Always take pictures along the way in life.

Thanks.
I was sitting there feel slightly anxious about all the work I "should've" been getting done; then I gave myself a mental dope-slap. I have a hard time convincing myself to not just work all the time.

Priorities.

Rob, I think by now you must have a mountain of firewood a mile high and two miles wide. You can't possibly burn all that, do you sell it?
Or are you making a collection of planks to build things?
Are you clearing land to farm or is this all woodland firewood?
