Moving dirt

We have a lot of dirt. Really. Well, dirt and weeds to be exact.  Living on almost 1.5 acres has it's benefits as well as pitfalls, such as the dirt and weeds.  But give us some time and we'll have it all mostly under control.

Our good friend owns a landscape maintenance company and loaned us their small skid-steer tractor in the hopes we could move around the dirt how we wanted it.  Below is a picture of the back part of our land - there is a raised dirt pad that's about 40 feet deep by 60 feet long that we put there when we built our house thinking that's where we would put the horse stalls.  Once the house was built we said nevermind.  So, dirt has to go away.

Don't you just love the weeds/vines growing on the backyard neighbor's fence?  It's yucky!

Tractor...meet Man.  And iPhone.


He did several of these which made my heart want to stop!


He did some of this -----^ and then realized this poor little tractor just wasn't going to cut it.  We needed to bring in the big guns.

So, at the end of the day (or rather the next morning) the dirt pad was still there and we had a guy with a bigger tractor scheduled for the next day.
