Sunday was more of the same at the farm.  We nearly finished the recycled material stairs leading to the crib.  I’d like to add a few small chunks, and someday cement all this together to get rid of the cracks.

I got a lot more re-grading done around the crib and moved the old compost piles.  I thought the old compost site would be a good place to create a new fire pit, as it was next to the giant pile of scrap wood (ie, the barn).  It turned into more of a giant courtyard, as the dirt scooped out easily, then lined it with most of the leftover rubble.  After we burn here, I’ll clean it out and make it grass or garden and leave the new retaining walls.

Monday found us using old corn crib siding as 4′ tall fence pickets at the house.  Our back fence is 2/3 of the way done.  We ended the day going back to the farm to pickup the last of the picket pile we didn’t bring up beforehand.
