Last Mulch of the Season

Hopefully. No, I mean it.
You knew I was going to get some more mulch by the way I was writing, right? I mean, I mentioned it here and here. I just had one last part of the backyard to smooth over. I also wanted to mulch around all the trees I planted. The dirt (I say dirt, because it is no where near soil) was getting rather crispy. I checked under the mulch that I previously put down this year and the dirt is nice and moist. I knew what I had to do.
I am not sure how many of these pictures you can take.
When the mulch dude called me back this morning, I asked him for a “big” ten yards, instead of the “not so big” ten yards he delivered last time. I know the pile doesn’t look any bigger, but it is. After he dumped it, the whole pile was steaming like a big cow pie.
Here is the area in the back yard that I am fixing up. I forgot to take a picture before I started, so you can see some of the fresh stuff towards the top of the hill. The whole area is really crappy and dry. It also has a bunch of stone mixed in with the dusty dirt. I say, cover the whole damn thing up. I have a few trees planted in there, so they should appreciate that.
I will take an “after” photo tomorrow when I finish up. I hope it looks beautiful.

I have an area that needs mulch. Why don’t you come down and visit and buy me a big steaming cow pie.
