Day 4, the finale.

And because no project ever goes smoothly at Casa River…. when they reached the end, something went wrong and piles of rocks had to be removed and replaced.

And right after I filmed that utterly riveting video (that WordPress decided to cut and only load half, for which you should be grateful)? They disturbed a mouse nest and were attacked by one royally pissed off mother rodent. But finally… late that afternoon, it was declared finished.

Okay, so it looks a little pregnant in the middle due to a slight bump out.

To be honest, he dug this one down too far as well… and I still wish it was taller on the high end of the grass. I’m not complaining just to complain…. but I’m the one who has to pull all the grass and weeds that blow in there from the mower because it’s too low.

But it looks a lot better than it did…. and in 10-15 years when Maine’s notorious frost heaving and shifting earth crumbles this one? We’ll probably hire someone to rebuild it again because we’ll be too old and decrepit. Maybe then I can have a high wall.

Perhaps the wrong fertilizer is being used? Some rocks like full sun – others not so much, and you may have a mixture of the two. Perhaps you’re watering too much?
Perhaps asking around on a geologist forum would give you some insight?

Looks nice. I also really liked the curve. Hope they didn’t kill the mouse for defending it’s home.
