Taking down the hill

You can't really tell from this picture, but the hill in our backyard was at least 4-5' higher than the foundation of our house.  It had a huge stump in it and it came all the way up to our back door, making a patio or proper drainage impossible.

Notice the tree on the right...it leans just a tad

Oh...sorry.  I couldn't see your house behind those ridiculously tall gardenia bushes.  They haven't been moved, yet.  But if the weather is nice, they will be gone Saturday.

The oak that was about 5 feet from our back door.  Down.

The hill and stump are gone!

Have you ever seen a more beautiful site?  Wait till Saturday when the grass goes in.  I'm giddy.
