OK, here you go, my first vid ever posted, the first vid I took several months into this project; building a flat yard on a steep slope all by hand. The project took 8 months, from digging all the foundation ditches by hand, the deepest being 6 feet deep x 2 feet wide, moving and using all the soil to create the yard, 516 75-lb blocks for all the raining walls, back-filled with 67's gravel all mixed with Portland cement for "Stabilized Aggregate" hand-carried in buckets, and more... In total, moved dirt, rocks, roots, gravel, cement and blocks totaling 420,000 lbs, by hand... OH, did I mention... I'm in my 60's... True Mountain Man Living, more to come...
