I spread our several yards of top soil today to cover up the Sandy soil from the bank repair last fall so grass will actually grow and I can mow it. I also graded a bit too to make it look better. I then planted Ninebark shrubs along the bank, hoping they'll help with the erosion and plus they'll look nice and it's a prime location for these shrubs. A sandy rocky soil which they like and well drained so less chance of root rot. I also raked, seeded and spread with straw. Also put mulch around the the shrubs.
It's nice to have some land back. It washed out so bad last year almost where grass and dirt is.
This is what it looked like last fall.
Next on the list is to cut the rest of the that tree stump down. Not sure how I'm gonna do that with an 18 inch bar
It's coming along..slowly but surely. Little by little. The Kubota has been a huge help for sure. It didn't take long to move 12 yards of top soil. It was great practice for me too learning how to get a full scoop. After several scoops I pretty much can get a full scoop everytime now!
Glad I did this all today and not next week when it's gonna be close to 100f
