Good-bye Front Yard ( or what did we do?)

We started!!! Without any plans, we decided to level the yard. Our research told us that the cheapest and easiest way to do this was by renting a bobcat and a 5-yard dump truck. It took all day, but 3 dump loads later, our debris and dirt were gone. What was left was repairing all the sprinkler heads and the valve cover box. Looking at it afterwards, I heard myself say, “What did we do?”

On the brighter side, having any high-powered car or large equipment brought all the male neighbors outside to check it out!! I got a kick out of riding so high in the dump truck, but watching my husband’s smiling face in the bobcat, you would say it wasn't all work.
