Heavy Rocks and Sore Shoulders

So up until 2 weeks ago my sister's and our house were separated by a field out front to left of us. Now there is a house there and we cannot cross in front anymore. I think it's about a 2 kilometer drive around. Since the woods run behind our house my husband decided to clear a path. This first picture shows what it looked like before.

He cleared away some bushes and small trees and left everything else. We are very mindful of nature. It's a really pretty walk now.

This is the first hill which was left over from the house they put in and the edge of the forest and very dangerous because it has loose rocks. So my son and I decided to make stairs from rocks laying around and some old ashphalt pieces we found.

This is the second part of the path my hubby cleared. Now, you see the rocks, they were everywhere so I started lining the path. This is the reason for the sore shoulder. I moved most of these. Then hubby saw what I was doing and decided to give me a hand. I told him Martha (Stewart) would be proud!

This is what it looked like before the rocks.

This is the second hill with it's new steps. Hubby did this one. It is also nicer than mine.

The reverse look. I just love it! It will make for a beautiful path in the summer. We're just going to have to learn to out run the mosquitoes.

Check this big (dead) tree they cut down it's just layin' there. They probably didn't even need to cute it down in the first place. The trees behind our house were slated to be cut down to make way for drainage or something but I threw such a stink, they have decided to leave them alone. Next week I'll be picking out the garbage. Last week we had ducks in there and yesterday my son discovered a gopher and it's home.
