It seems my husband misjudged how much pea gravel he would need.
.
.
4 yards was ordered and roughly two was used.
.

The poor man loaded and dumped and spread for days.

I honestly don’t know where he gets the energy or how he has the stamina at his age.
.

I’m 16 years younger and it wears me out just watching.

Viola!
Level ground… even though it may not look like it in the photo.

Of course now there’s the question of what to do with the rest of the fill pile that wasn’t needed.
It’s way over here…
So maybe we’ll worry about that tomorrow.

Progress is progress. We haul a lot of pond pebbles around here, but not pea gravel. It looks like trouble.

You know a child’s lemonade stand? Your husband should have a pea gravel stand. Chit-chatting and off-loading pea gravel. What could be better?

His strength and stamina come from wanting to do a good job for his wife. And because he’s a Marine, they never give up or tire. At least that’s what I heard.

I’m guessing being a Marine ranks higher than pleasing the wife…

Can you dump it in that trench out by the road?

That’s probably where it’s headed…

Your man is too stubborn to admit he made a mistake. He will kill himself doing something that shoild have been done by younger folk. But, as huntress said, “He’s a marine.” They get an idea in their head, they gotta do it, or die trying. (Which helps you none st all. I think you’d rather have him alive.)

His inability to ask for help is set in stone.

Not surprised. Try putting the stone in his boot. He’ll have to ask how it got there

Tara also misjudged how much dirt she’d need for the garden, which explains why there’s still have a pile left in the driveway.

That is back breaking work! I’m also exhausted just seeing him doing it. I suppose too much gravel is better than too little?

In this case, not really.
