Retaining Wall

When we bought the cabin there was a retaining wall that ran from about the end of the fence over to the steps, which are just out of the frame on the right.  In order to put the septic tank in the installer had to destroy the wall.  So our next project is to rebuild it so we can level off the ground and build a tool shed where the upper pile of dirt is sitting.
The first step was to remove the old maple bush that was on the property line and would have made working on the shed very difficult.  Cutting it down went very quickly, but I still need to put some Epsom salts down to get rid of the stump.  Now that it's out of the way, we can start to set the new retaining wall.  When it's done we'll have 2 level areas and a small planter bed between an upper and lower wall.
