Diggers and Levellers

---

Nothing to do with the diggers and levellers of history and a lot to do with JCBs wielded by a man with artistry in his soul.

The digger came back and built up a terrace along the front of the house and then shaped the garden, including building a wall to hold the terrace in place, with a broad path along the bottom of the terrace. Then the hill at the bottom of the garden, which was actually all the top soil from the site was levelled, and spread over the garden.

Willy is now digging it over by hand and removing the large boulders which were inadvertently hidden in the topsoil. He's probably overdoing it and is full of aches and pains... everyone say "aah!".

Waouh !
"Félicitations!". That's a beautiful work, and with the garden right in the front of the house, with the lake behind, you will have a very nice view... Courage for the diggers ;-)
