great job! and so pretty. Have a pitcher of sangria and enjoy the view

Impressive!!!

Beautiful! Your hard work is appreciated by me. I suggest 2 tylenols at first ache felt in the back.

BTW, without guests my projects would never get done, LOL

Yup - guests inspire me to get a lot more done. I’ve been reflecting on how lazy I was during the pandemic when we had no visitors..

Looks great. 62 bags of mulch is a lot to spread.

That's a whole lot of mulch! Is it all for the path? Your property is gorgeous.

I love love the smell of mulch.

I have sixteen more to go at the top but will do that next weekend. I much prefer getting my exercise doing something useful and productive rather than exercising just for exercise.

Wow, that’s a big job! It looks wonderful, well done. :)

Good for you 2katz!! I feel the same way about exercise. :)

We have recently been doing a ton of yard work, and we still lack a bit of pinestraw. Yours looks so good!

Yeah - all for the path from the house down to the lake. Here’s the beginning of the path. That’s the part I have left.

Ohhh, it's so very pretty! Wow, what a big undertaking to spread that much mulch though! My back hurts just thinking about it!

You are superwoman. Looks amazing.

Whoa! I am beyond impressed. I bow to you and wish I could still do that! Looks wonderful!

That’s amazing! I did 10 bags today and it was blazzzzzing hot. I was sweating! Really happy with how my back bed is shaping up this year though!

Impressive!

omgoodness—look at what a kid baby Emmet has become

2katz, I am impressed!

Wow, look at that big boy E!

@Robo - Looking good! Mulch is such a chore but a gratifying one when it looks so nice.

Whoa @3katz4me and @robo (z6a) ...if you have time and want to be where it's warmer come to VA !! haha..you BOTH would be most welcome. I have mulch LOL !! Your gardens look SO beautiful. I can hardly wait till mine fill in . c

Three truck loads!

@User - warmer, seriously? No way!!

Oh my! The first pic would make a beautiful painting. I’d love to see a pic of the lake. I grew up with a summer lake house, and still miss it.

I just looked again..... On second thought, I’d frame that photo.

@3katz4me haha yes I was kidding! Actually it was cooler here than the upper mid West! Take it easy up there. Your lake area is stunning. c

@martinca_gw sunset zone 24 your post reminded me of waterlogue for some reason. Anyone remember that?

Yes! I once had it. Yours looks so good; it must be the newer version? Looking a third time.... the photo is richer ...Frame it, I say!

As one who has spread a lot of mulch, that is most impressive. Well done!!

Well I have to say I didn't really suffer any ill effects from the mulch project - not even any sore muscles to speak of. I guess golf must be keeping me in good mulching shape or maybe I just lug enough other heavy stuff around to do it because it's not exercise for the sake of exercise as I mentioned.

I love how fresh mulch can transform an area into looking polished and fresh. I have a yard project that is taking quite some time, but just putting down mulch transformed it from a barren dirt area to a nice little garden oasis (with trees, flowers, water feature, etc). I only wish I had your beautiful forest walkway. So lovely!
