Making a Retaining Wall

 

 

 

 

After taking all of the concrete chunks outside we began building a retaining wall where we will put all of the dirt from the ditches and grinder pump hole. This will bring the ground up closer to the siding and will look better terraced. The concrete chunks will help to stablize the ground in case the creek runs over its banks. So, we dragged railroad ties from the front of the house down to the back and started building. We nailed the railroad ties together with 3/8" rebar cut into 30" lenths. There will be more pictures as the project continues.
