oh, i am jealous of your soil! I just finished all the prep work for my sod project which included 18 c yards of topsoil, tilling it into the existing soil, raking, raking, and more raking, and then the rolling. Now I have to wait for the weather to cooperate for the sod to be cut and delivered. I looked at your other projects and they all look great. I built a fence to make a separate yard for my dog last fall which was a lot of work but nothing compared to the sod. Thanks for sharing these!
