      I saw another RUclipsr use an old bed spring that he attached to the back of his truck with a chain to level his driveway out. He said that it worked great. Something heavy like that might work for you without a lot of expense.

    Forget the wheelbarrow and get one of those wagons that can carry up to 600lbs or more. Some have a dump feature on them too so it makes it easier to dump things. We bought one to move rocks around on our property to save our backs and it was a game changer. No more tippy wheelbarrow straining your shoulders trying to keep heavy things from tipping on that one wheel.

    Putting the rock down helps keeping critters out, its difficult for them to walk on. Caravan Carolyn had cicadas at her camp, not sure how close she is to you? Loving your new place, what a great base camp for your growing family. And poo poo on all folks dissing you for this change in your life. I'm hooked on so many rver's that have added a basecamp/new home to their channel, it's thebpeopke I watch, like. You do you. ❤

    Eric, it’s been so much fun watching you on your new property. Your enthusiasm is infectious. Even when something disappoints you, like USPS not getting your address right, I know that big grin is on the way! Can you say FedEx?? Having Kevin and the Woof Pack nearby is another positive thing to look forward to now. All of the friends just make life more interesting. Sending hugs from Hammond, Louisiana! 🙀🙀🐶

    Those boots will really come in handy if you get some snow there, and they'll definitely help with the white mountain mud. Cicada's? Yes Arizona. No this part, well at least where I live in Lakeside. And the quiet? Strangely enough, we get that here in town too. One of these days, I might just have to head out and find . . . another neighbor.

    4:50 I know from experience, don't get one of those wheelbarrows. You can't walk with them very well. One of those 4-wheel garden carts are great and similar priced on the "great big river" place. SO much better and some you can just hitch and drive short distances around your property.
