Day FIVE!

Though we had almost a two-week break between Day 4 and Day 5, this is the 5th day we've dedicated to landscaping our back yard. Started this morning around 9 and finished just as the winds started picking up and a storm threatened our giant hill of dirt. We began by removing the remainder of the existing sprinkler, raking out some old sod that remained, rototilling over the entire surface, building the retaining wall around the tree, and moving 6 cubic yards of topsoil from the driveway to the back. Whew! Tomorrow we'll level out the topsoil, replace the sprinkler line, and install the edging where the rock currently is (along the fence) and where the sod will meet it. Sod will be delivered on Monday!
