Okay, I just looked at the part of Blueberry Hill left to be smashed and my lower back hurt, so I went over to smash piles of branches on solid ground. I got 2 piles of small branches and 2 of light medium with the sharp axe end of the maul head and then a drizzle came up, so I went in to rest the back, in a bit I’ll gather the piles back together and get them with the blunt head, then sort the rubble – twig-size stuff skimmed for later use, stuff that’s proving too thick set aside to be lopped, and everything else gathered up to be threshed again

Gathered and flat-smashed them all, finished ditches on both sides of the rammed-earth ramp to the gate, moved a roll of wire grid to the backyard where I’ll use it to shore up the Blueberry Hill retaining wall (this was the original yard task I thought up around Christmas of 2021), and started filling in the dugout shell with logs and covering with pine boughs.
