Another glorious day!  We're forecast to get some rain over the next couple days, so we wanted to get some grass seed down on another area.  This area had a low spot that Jim wanted to fill in first, plus he wants to get rid of our dirt piles.  Bringing down some top soil... 

Bringing dirt and grading the area.  There weren't too many rocks in this dirt, but I picked out the bigger ones.

Doing grading the other direction...

Seven bucketsful of dirt later - looks great!

Jim raked it next...

Then I put on grass seed and we picked out any other rocks that came to the surface.  Now it just needs some nice rain and sunshine!

Jim wants to use this dirt pile to build up the area at the top of the hill where we would like to build the house.  Scooping up dirt...

More dirt scoops are starting to build up this area...

Jim found this rock - we think it's an "N" carved in the stone with a mark pointing to the left side of the rock.  A rock from long ago used to mark north?  We're definitely keeping it!
