As we continue the DIY construction of the home-base drive around for our Airstream, our current project is leveling the back yard so that a shelter can be installed.
There is a gradual slope in the drive that will have to be leveled
The moving of earth will be done with pick, hoe, and shovels
Laid an initial line of pavers which I later had to reposition
Two dump truck loads - coarse gravel on left, finer gravel on right in photo above
Decided we need to dig a french drain to run under the shelter platform
Drainage ditch
Perforated pipe
Gravel covering drainage pipe
Lots of digging in the highest area
Lots of wheel barrow loads of dirt and gravel on this lowest corner
Making progress
Almost ready for the shelter
