Let's get grading ....

Hired a local Excavation company to do some slashing and grading as we've lots of grass, weeds, barley and rocks to gather and move before we can use our own Ride-On Mower.

Doing a great Job

Took quite a few hours

Neighbouring homes popping up like Mushrooms

Now that the Grading and Slashing has been done, our next task is to gather all of the loose smaller rocks as they surely cannot be Ride-on Mower friendly!! 

Over many days in the heat, this is where we realised just how BIG 2 acres really is!!

After Nine Months of Patiently Waiting .....

The land is finally ours! 

Looking big now

Lots of open space to play
