Now if you were any sense of a caring man Trav.
You'd offer to be there beside Bart to help him cut the Mangrove tree roots, to recover the days treasures.
Time to step up-and be that man.
No problem at all and was my intentions. I would be there with him every minute. While he was in swamp gathering treasure, I would be right there in the boat guarding it for his return. And if I saw or heard any danger, I would speed away in the boat to get help to make sure Bart was safe. I know. Heartwarming. That is just the kind of mate I am.
But alas, as I got to the Keys and started in there was a bridge that looked like it had been blown up. Must have been some terrible accident.

What is it with certain folks about boulders and bridges ?
You know, when you repeatedly slam a deep thinking OCD mind with the same content over and over, the mind starts to put the pieces together.
Not long after we moved here, my phone started showing me crap about boulders and bridges.
Whole bridges being stolen..?
How or why would anyone steal a whole bridge ?
What do boulders have to do with anything ?

Why does my phone think that I am someone else ?

Suspicious crap is what this is.

Promise you one thing, you are barking up the wrong tree.

Where exactly did I move to ?
Is this why that census guy that day showed me a map on his phone that showed red flags all around us and said those represent dangerous people..

I say to that, that all humans have the potential to be dangerous given the situation.

Not afraid.

Thank you Pepper, hope you're having a good day
I'm not sure, time is running short for the Excavator rental.
Still doing rock work.
Time sucking endeavor it seems.
Working on a steep slope is challenging.
Retaining wall, stairs, rock garden, path, all wrapped up into one project.
Some of the main boulders weigh 2+tons. Then the other ones are in the 1/2 ton weight range.
The steps are still a challenge to set with the 5 foot steel bar.
To level some I can jab it under but can't pivot the side up, so the machine does that. The bar has seen better days from this maneuver.

You need to be careful. Could get dangerous real quick.

The gardens we did last year, the rocks this year.(past week)
Still have the grading of soil to the back side of the stones. But the general idea is starting to develop.
