Just deal with it!

First thing this morning,

we decided to deal with the problem-

the BIG rock!

 

Amazing what a diamond blade

on a grinder can do!

Mickey removed about an inch and a half

from the top, making it workable. 

Doesn't this look fun?

It is actually more difficult than

you may think.

With a little experince,

it becomes quite versatile.

Mickey and the bobcat moved

an entire load of gravel from 

just outside our gate!

A load?

Well it is 12 yards or

one dump truck full.

Or approximately 20 scoops.

The handwork begins!

Level...

Scrape...

Level...

Smooth...

Level...

Scrape...

Level.

Smooth and level!

A little more electrical work done,

but not quite finished.

It is time to cook our first meal

in the new outdoor cooking area.

Just a little more work.

What a wonderful area!

Notice the smaller rock trying

to act like a flagstone.

We will do our best to make it

fit in properly.

We will deal with it.

For now, we are very pleased.

Having located our flagstone

at a quarry near Trementina,

we are anxious to make the purchase

and get back to work!
