    Starting to look good, Josh. Isn’t $1000 a day kind of overpriced for just rental on the truck? I think it would be closer to maybe $75 an hour. I would also still like to see Kyle from R&R buildings come out and build you a fantastic barn, dominium.

      I’m sure the $1K included the driver! And the miles and fuel. So not a bad deal, probably on the cheaper end of the scale.

    I’ve been the excavation business for 41years.
    I’ve had people get indigent that I charge for dirt, my reply is the dirt is free, in reality your paying for a truck,loader,insurance,overhead,fuel,CDL requirements ect ect!
    Most people don’t realize what tags on a dump truck cost either. In my situation it’s about 1800.00 per year plus a 500.00 permit to move equipment.
    When people say do you think you own the road l say not at all just more of it than you do.

    I'm used to dirt being talked about in yards of material, I knew a family in Texas simular they had poor soil on their ranch ; state was building roads in areas with excellent top soil they had to set grade down and freely dumped many tens of thousands of yards of soil on their entire ranch also graded it their entire property became excellent farm & ranch property no charge very awesome for their ranch.

    The end looks nice. My farm is full of ridges and valleys right now. I'm slowly getting it, tho. A good part of it is all the rocks I've pulled out. It's almost like I'm on top of an abandoned rock quarry! I've been working hard on this lil farm. But, got some potatoes growing. Got a few aubergines growing too, which is nice. Man...NOW someone finally told me. I was wondering why my aubergines have had so many pests. Treehoppers, aphids, ants, flea beatles, white flies, mealybugs, snails, slugs, even found a tobacco hornworm! About the only thing I haven't seen on my aubergines has been cabbage worms! I better not say that too loud, it might give them ideas!

    I could take a JD 450 or CAT D-4 and have you skating on it in a couple of hours. To make it just right, a few grade stakes and slope it anyway you like. One thing I learned in my construction life, proficiency on a bulldozer of any size. Bucket loaders and scrapers can do great work but only one other machine can make it better than the bulldozer, MOTORGRATER.

Regarding your Outdoor Kitchen. Why are the vertical timbers for it not on the "Piles", Concrete supports, but seem to have a 'bolt' holding the weight? Wondered that before, either you answered it in previous and missed it etc. When Dad build this place he used rebar drilled into timbers (so it wouldn't shift or jump ha), Concrete braces, but the wood was always set on the concrete.
