@parus Oh! Your phrase brought back memories, as my mother said that often - "If wishes were horses, beggars would ride". Wonder what would come out of your talented hands if you put that to a picture or 3d rendering?

I learned long ago how to pick things up, how to safely move heavy objects. Compact heavy things are not so much an issue as bulkier ones. We'll share a cuppa today, okay? How wonderful to have your little scamp over, again!

@artscaping I feel the collective encouragement from people here as I make this feature, like a cheering section for me. A positive thing!

@helenfrances As the light changes during the day, the shadows play across the pile, picking up different colors. It is an endless source of fascination to me. Attempting to jigsaw puzzle piece the rocks into fitting together, to cover the groundcloth, makes it a challenge. So, largest rocks laid first now, then increasingly smaller ones. In the next few days it will be basically done. My husband wants me to add in the smaller light colored stones that line one side of the driveway, and replace them with bricks. It would make mowing adjacent lawn easier, and a over-shoot from driveway to bricks would be easier on tires! At the end of each day's endeavor, it is easier now to see the progress.
