Description:

Today we got a late start because we were helping the GCC church on Peters Creek Rd with a trail build project they are working on.  They wanted some guidance.  Then we headed over to the Rock-N-Roll.  We were not sure how the road or trail would be.  It was not as terrible as I thought it might be.  One culvert was stopped up and water was flowing across the road.  But the trails certainly should have not been used and there were a bunch of people out using them.  Glad we didn't see anyone come by us on Rock-N-Roll while we were out there.  We were very limited on what we could work on as the ground was too wet.  We ended up closing down one of the dirt mines furthest back on the trail.  It took us most of the day to naturalize as the ground was heavy.  We had to do it by hand as we lost another lug from the Vermeer tracks and now two in a row are gone.  Now I don't know if we will be able to get the machine out or not.  We could not take it down the trail today as it is too wet and we don't want to damage what we have finished.  We worked a little on the area where we are going to do the next armoring project in a drainage.  This was the first time we had significant flow in it and we did not like the direction of the water. There is a huge rock diverting the water on the downhill side and we don't want to move it 5000lb at least.  We worked a little on correcting that to get water to flow around it and getting it ready for the armoring rocks.  I think we are going to end up cutting the biggest armor rocks so we have more cracks for the water to flow through and they will be easier to move.  Maybe down to 200-300lb pieces.   They are over 1000lb now.  Wish we would have cut them more before moving them uphill a few months ago which would have made that easier.
