We spent all day Thursday hauling dirt from the settling pond a mile from our farm.
Load the trailer, dump the trailer repeat.
We will use this dirt to fill in low spots on the fields, to fix a road that washed out, and to pack areas which the wind has whipped bare (like over culverts)
Last load—8-5 we are tired and ready to stop.
Done for another year.
Your friend on a western Colorado farm,

I don’t know how you two do it. You power through work that would destroy a younger couple!
