I'm going to tinker with different soundcards I have, USB and PCI to see which is better at storing and playing audio from old vinyl records that I have.
What do/don't you have planned?

I think instead of 'sweeping it under the carpet' landscapers tend to 'sweep it under the lawn'.
I dug over my small back lawn three years ago and was quite surprised by the amount of rubble I found under there.
It's only around 5m x 5m (16' x 16') but I had quite a stone pile by the end of it.

Would have been nice to have found a hoard of Anglo-Saxon gold and silver or something like that though.
At least no unexploded devices though, or cars.

Phewww...It took more effort that I thought. Still half way through. Part 3 in the coming weeks..
'expensive', if it occurs outside the jewellers...
That might have hurt a lot less, maybe.
rock picking...what's that? :D
I'm a redneck in my other life
The acreage at the cottage has been an ongoing project.
Right now we're clearing and preparing a few more areas for lawn before the rains begin.
This one in the picture will be a grass parking area. So I've been picking up all the bigger rocks out of that area and we've been using them for drainage around the parking area near the house (french drain), as that was a mud bath all winter.

That's a little cart we tow behind our golf cart
Naomi (aka SuperArtGirl) does it differently...

(she was moving rocks from a rock pile we created while clearing the other lawn last year)
(and yes, she did dig a trench for the bomb squad! that was the very first thing she ever used her bobcat for!
)
Here's an earlier picture of the parking area by the house. It's nearly done now. The ideal is to have 3/4" drain rock, but this gets the job done and gets rid of all the rocks from the rest of the property. It's extreme overkill for a 2-car parking spot, but Naomi got a little carried away with the excavator while digging the trenches LOL.
