My buddy stopped by with his dump trailer and I loaded last year's leaf piles and stump grindings from recent tree removal - filled the 14' trailer with 2+' sides entirely.
Then I had 28 tons of sand+compost delivered and I swapped the BH77 for the box blade and spread/leveled all the ruts from the 22 stumps that were ground.
Got done in about 6 hours with all of it and my backhoe cart and box blade cart saved me a ton of time swapping back and forth. I went back outside and played with the BH77 digging around a cedar stump that was buried under the pile of leaves - starting to get the hang of it.
This whole area used to be wooded with small cedars, oaks, black cherry, and buckthorn. I only have oaks and a few larger cedars remaining. The sprinkler company I use is going to add a zone here and I'll be putting seed down next weekend.
