Day 133

I decided to buy the rock today. I was surprised when they said that they would deliver it about two hours after I ordered it. When it got here I had them dump half of it at the bottom of the driveway and half in the area where rock was stored before. Then I went to work on the lower pile.

I ordered 7 yards and they brought 7.5 yards. That's OK. It ended up costing $85.

I moved about two yards of material in the hour and a half that I worked. It was 85 degrees and I was working in the sun. I managed to fill in the major ditch that was at the bottom of the driveway. Then I decided that I was too hot and tired to do more.

After dinner we went over to Lowe's to by a table for the patio. I was really more interested in how much the truck packed down the material that I spread out than getting the furniture. I planned to put the furniture together tonight, but it was 8:30 by the time we got home. All that cardboard packaging will have to wait until next week to go the the recyclers.

The trucked packed down the material about like I expected. After it's all packed down in a week or so I may have to fill in a couple of low spots.
