Though, since most of the places I moved the gravel to weren't easy to get around in on a tractor, I spread most of the gravel by hand with a hard tine rake. Tractor definitely helps. A LOT. I was still broken on Monday, though. :)Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02769150016495656772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9090907568893124937.post-12125005569122375062012-02-16T19:16:29.295-08:002012-02-16T19:16:29.295-08:00I'm stuck on the part where you casually menti...I'm stuck on the part where you casually mentioned spreading a dump truck full of gravel?!! How do you do that and not totally wreck your back? I need to know your secret because I have gravel in my future...Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04500606532723836054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9090907568893124937.post-81895389682714007362012-02-16T11:52:08.533-08:002012-02-16T11:52:08.533-08:00Lindsey, haven't ever had them, but we had a s...Lindsey, haven't ever had them, but we had a space that they should do well in, so we'll see! <br /><br />Linda, they did well clearing out a lot of the brambles under the cedars last year, so we'll see how this round goes.<br /><br />Chai Chai, that's awesome. :)<br /><br />Lana, you're gonna loooove pigs. They're so fun when they're smaller, but by the time they're big enough for slaughter, you're ready for them to go (at least we were). Makes the bye bye easier!<br /><br />Charade, goats do much better job, so you're good there. Just make sure you have REALLY good fencing. Trust me.<br /><br />KP, we got Gus end of August/beginning of September last year. I haven't posted about him since I found him obnoxious, and Henry really didn't like him, which meant we may not have kept him (because Henry is king). I'll do a post on Gus Gus the weasel dog here soon.Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02769150016495656772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9090907568893124937.post-10128167489762349102012-02-16T05:25:00.830-08:002012-02-16T05:25:00.830-08:00I must have missed something.
