Only a 10 ft x 4 ft section and it took all day and 5.5 bags of mulch. Have 2 more sections to do as well. Hope I can do that sometime in the next year.

    In this neighborhood of the planet all that is buried under snow. I don’t really like yardwork but I do like the weather conducive to it. Sounds like a good day of hard but satisfying work

    I once jumped on an oportunity for free dirt. I have a small utility trailer that can handle 1,000 lbs. I totally underestimated the volume to weight ratio of dirt and the amount of time it takes to shovel dirt into a trailer. I think I took 6 trips back and forth over several days, each trip took almost an hour of shoveling.

      There is a time when it makes sense to pay someone else to help or do it for you. For me, moving heavy things is that line. If you even lift, bro, maybe that’s not you - but it’s not worth being sore for 2 weeks just to save a couple hundred.
