Retaining wall build

[Yooperguy]

10 years after clearing the land and building our house, it was time to do something with the erosion at the gable end of the house. I had originally shaped the soil with a gentle slope and planted grass. It did well the first year but then we got dogs, and with their constant traffic the gradual soil erosion began. It was looking bad and was causing some issues with water runoff too. So the project that was long overdue finally got underway. My wife is pleased with the result. Happy wife... Happy life!

Looks like you have put the Mahindra to work! I have been waiting on the dealer to get a unit in. My wife is making a list of things she wants me to do once I get a different tractor bought. It keeps getting longer. Can't decide if that is good or bad.

Depends on who gets to rotate tasks to the top of the list and how hard she pushes to get them done. Since the answer to both is most likely not you, I vote BAD

Yes Sir! I've been logging some tractor time. I have the same situation... permission to buy tractor is granted and the honey-do list begins to grow in size and scope. :laughing: It's a universal "problem!"
