Probably not,I had surgery many years ago and the surgeon told me if people would exercise there back he would be out of business..

my back guy took one look at the MRI of my back & asked if I was in construction as he usually sees that type of damage in that profession - told him I was a desk jockey

OY!! There's no doubt Mike that you do excellent work and you should be justifiably proud!! Looking at these photos causes a reflexive Ibuprofen inventory check!!!

I just revel in living far away from suburbia, where many are locked in a loop, trying to make their Castle a poster child for "Better Homes and Gardens".

Try it, you'll like it!! Have yet to hear a complaint from the seagulls about any bare spots on the lawn...

It’s my therapy, I enjoy it. I do it for me not to impress the neighbors or anyone else.If I had a house in the sticks it would still look nice but I would do a more natural landscaping

Besides doing NOTHING, my natural landscaping involves taking small, native white birch, white pine and balsam firs from the "leave it wild" parts, and moving them around the property to have 3 distinct areas, a white pine grove with enough needles on the ground to prevent anything else growing there, a birch grove and a future Christmas Tree farm. Add to that getting all the wild blueberry plants into one area and that's work enough...

This question might be best fit for Chevy since we are in the same vicinity and he’s in the business.

What do you think the average cost for a yard of clean topsoil delivered / dumped in driveway would be?

I’d say your looking at 30 a yd for lesser quantities like 3 or 4 yards,larger amounts like 15 to 20 yard loads the price will drop a little,most yards get 15 a yard picked up ..

bury a few dog bones & maybe he'll take care of it for you...
:LOL:

I'm sure I don't have to tell you to space those suckers far apart. I was told 5 feet - should have been more like 10 feet. I put 3 of those in about 6 years ago. They easily got 8 to 10 feet wide & about 15 to 20 feet high. From growing together like they did - it cut off air supply (not enough air moving through the branches) & they began to develop mildew & I had to cut one of them down.

Not sure I can save the other two.

You could probably cover the section of fence by using 3 to 4 of the bushes you have there.
