LEVELING

Just before Christmas half of our back yard was a trench and over the winter it sank in several places creating holes and ponds. Monday, Paul borrowed a tiller and spent most of the day tilling up the surface and leveling it. I can't believe how much better it looked. He is amazing. All he used was this tiller, the little tractor wagon and two cinder blocks to weigh down the bed so it would level the dirt. And a rake. And stamina, patience and determination. It looks so good and I hope grass will grow this spring. He plans to sew grass seed.  That afternoon, it rained a slow rain, enough to settle everything down and give it a little moisture to seal it.
