Edge stone

I seriously should buy stock in the Pavestone company. We had to order a full pallet of edging stones (because Home Depot and Lowes decided white was not the "in" color this year) and had them delivered. This saved a lot of hassle but cost about $50 to deliver them. It was worth it. Back to the "half ton truck" problem. These were over a ton per pallet and I would have just had to manually unload each one, then reset them in the ground anyway. Might as well deliver them and save my back/hands the workout.

We were pretty pooped about the Freedom drain. So we didn't get a lot done the next day. We did however get a game plan. I bought a matic and went to town. It cleared a nice 8" wide, sharp edged trench all the way down our lawn. Then we got the stakes and string out and leveled it. It doesn't look like much but after those first days of the drain, this was it for today. We ended it with a nice Harley ride to blow off the dust.
