So, the side yard between the kennel and the house has slowly been getting muddier. With winter coming on the sun no longer hits much of the ground there, and the wet weather has produced an ever-growing mud-bog. So Tuesday we had 3 cubic meters (about 6 tons or so) of gravel dumped into the bog. I am now spreading it out, and carting bucket-loads to some of the other potholes around the place. It is amazing how quickly it is all getting used up! But until the mud swallows it all down, we have a dry and llevel side yard again.

At some point we may need another big load of gravel to deal with some of the gates that have gotten “scooped out” by having stock standing by them all the time. Have to talk to someone who is expect in the secrets of fillling holes. And we may need a front-end loader to drive the material into position.
