We got the trailer and then Jeff and I set out to move clay, LOTS of clay. My dad has been battling the gray clay since he moved into the house wayyyyyyy back in the day. It has been the enemy for a long time. We decided to dig out the entire area that had been the second tier yesterday down to where the previous planting holes had been dug (a major expansion). We loaded up wheelbarrow after wheel barrow with clay and moved it to the trailer in the front yard. This clay had to have been the heaviest thing we have hulled in the wheelbarrows (even more than wet dirt and sand). We Dug out little tiered planting hole �up side down wedding cake� out much wider and down deep in the second tier area yesterday. The weather was nice so it was a good day to be moving the clay.
