It has been a lot of work. But it was worth all the smashed fingers and back pain.

I really like to drink beers and crawl in my backyard anytime

Started to work on this a little more while the weather was ok. Now there can be a few smaller trail to run threw.



Need to clean of more leafs but no worries. I also went to to a local spot and found four old dead small trees. Or what I will make look trees. I will kind dig them back into the ground inside the trails.




Then I started to work on a bridge. It is large enough for 1.9 and 2.2 and can be driven under.
