Lets get the ball rolling...

John took yesterday and today off work. He arranged a bobcat rental. There are three mounds of topsoil out back. There are at least a million rocks in the yard. And we're off. Halt #1 The Awful Sun. It is supposed be 100* today. I will NOT be out there between 10AM and 6PM. Im not an idiot. HE finished the parkstrip yesterday out in the hot, hot, scorching, ugh. Then, we went to a fabulous parade at grandma's house. Saw some fireworks from our yard while I continued to Rake Rocks in the dark of night. Holiday, Schmoliday.
