My wife just helped me get started on a crawling spot in the yard. She actually found some rocks on fb market and suggested it. We are cleaning up a corner of the yard that we always ignored that will become a rock pile. She's talking about getting a pallet of rocks to add in. On top of all that, she's done almost all the work as I'm recovering from a recent back surgery.
I didn't get a proper before picture, but I got one just after I ran the weed eater over it all. 15+ years of tree debris, plus mulch I guess the previous owners used. It took 2 cans and 6 yard bags to clean everything out. I'll follow up with more progress as it's made.
Here's our first set of rocks. Not a lot, but its a start
Here's the overall area after the weed eater
Wife at work. Lol
We pulled these out of that area. This was all just buried in the mess.
I need to get a pic of the current state as it's just dirt now. My wife really busted her tail cleaning it out.
