Well it all started with my great idea of wanting to get the kids a play set for Easter. So Blair and I broke down and bought one. In order to get it all set up we were going to need to level "some" of the back yard. Upon doing so we both decided that we didn't like how our yard was set up and that while we were at it we will go ahead and re landscape our whole yard. So we did what any "sane" people would do and we tore up all of our grass and posted it on KSL for free, well with in seconds of hitting the submit button the phone was ringing off the hook. That day we had a group of neighbors come and haul away most of the grass. Well as almost all of our projects go we ran in to a few complications. First was the main water line. On the city side we knew for a long time that there was a leak. Well that leak because a small river without grass to keep it hidden. So Blair thought that it would be a good idea since we already had things torn up that we should go ahead and change the piping from the old nasty galvanized pipe to the more modern.Second we decided to add to our driveway. So we did that too.
Once we got all the wholes filled back in we had to start the leveling. WOW that was a job in its self. Lots of LONG hours went in to the leveling project. Remember this all started in March. In July we were finally able to get the play set up. Not do to any slack, Blair had to go to Florida for a month in April. Then when he got back he had to go to Camp Williams for Annual Training. We had to redo the entire sprinkling system, now in the spring we will put top soil in and grass. So this post and project is To Be Continued...
