But without knowing how far you moved it, we can't know how much work it really was.

Or at least, that's what I remember of physics. Smiley

Was it in a truck? Or by hand? Because if all you did was drive a digger, I'm not impressed. But if it was a shovel (and even a wheel barrow) I'll be impressed

I'm going to take the obvious question here and ask "Why?"

It was 30 40 pound bags from where we had a whole storehouse of bags of dirt, up the hill using a wheelbarrow, to where the ground is generally lower than it should be because of a mix of sinkholes and flooding, both because we're on a lake leading into a waterfall... so, the water moves and slowly takes some of our dirt with it. So I put lots of dirt down and raked it so it's not too lumpy, and will do the same tomorrow Smiley It didn't take all that long...

I did the same thing the next day, and again today. 27 bags the other day and something like 15 the today. I kept wondering why I was having so much trouble lifting the 40 pound bags... my dad pointed out that they're all wet inside... they must have weighed 50-60 pounds each at least. At least I'm not as much of a weakling as I thought.

What are you really doing with all that dirt, Keith? What are you trying to cover up?
