Here is some pictures
This one before

After a day of digging with tractor
,
The pile of dirt and sod to the right

Did sole more last night. Got this little 2'x3' rock out of the bank. Took probably half hour of messing with it to get it out

The kabota b2100 my friend is letting me beat


Still a big stone in center that needs to come out for the deeper liner. That one is at least 5' diameter.

We got a used 28'x4' pool a few years ago. But she wants it to have a deep end of 3'. But right now there is a big rock in the slope part from shallow to deep..

But if you click the link and look at the 24' diameter pool that will be the shape of the bottom

If the link works

Looks like great progress Jim. Too bad you aren't closer, I have just a little bit bigger Kubota (L2550) that might be able to take on your big rock. You're going to need a lot of sandbox sand to smooth that hole out. Bet you are looking forward to that!

Spent the morning trimming back the trees on the back side of out driveway. The toyhauler may be here Friday and I need 13.5 feet of clearance for it. Over the years the tree branches have drooped a bit. All fixt now! Here a picture of my better half playing monkey in the tree - she's taking after our granddaughter who loves to climb. I told she's getting too old for this and now I think she agrees.

All this yard work is tiring me out. I'm ready for a rainy day so I can rest. Sounds like we may get some showers tomorrow. We actually need some rain - I have a bunch of brush in the field to burn but no burn permits until we get rain.

Good afternoon Shawn. Still more digging to do but ya not excited about the detail work. I called a guy I know with a little excavating business who will hopefully come over this week a look to see if he can move it.

You sound ready for a camping vacation
