Garden Project (along the driveway)

[WI_Hedgehog]

The lawn originally sloped downhill away from the driveway, dug that out with the BX to make it relatively level (minding drainage considerations) and used the dirt to put in a parking area (in the distance) along with fill some low spots in the lawn:

95°F and the supervisor was on me to get it done faster:

Rustled a few rocks and started on the driveway side border:

Got a corner done:

Looks good!

I've been using non-woven heavy geotextile fabric under the rocks to stop them from sinking in sandy soils.

Looking good. I'd be concerned your helper might help himself to the wiring on the tractor.

Another day, another rock. And some plants:

View from the other side, noting plant layout is subject to change before sticking them in the ground:

Fumble-fingerd my Kubota water bottle in the rain and it hit the deck shattering the glass:

Dropped the backup bottle on the top lid, this one is also a casualty:

The plants are planted. Got some rocks rustled and fill fenagled, they just need a bit of time to ripen in the sun (or dry out, it rained almost every day here).

That's looking good.

Much of the driveway was cleared after sorting out small rocks and piling the ground:

Doing the rest gave me "noodle legs:"

Then the larger rocks were sorted:

After stone cleanup there are easily enough rocks left to work with:

Rocks are set and topsoil added:

Not done, but closer...
