This is what our backyard looked like when we were done with the frontyard.  The extra rock on the sides was leftover from the frontyard effort.

The kids enjoyed playing back here and spreading their toys all over the yard.

More of the same.  Not a pretty sight when it started.

The first step was to build a rock wall along the back.  We started this by digging a trench to build the wall in.

This shows the trench  all the way across the yard.

The first row of rocks for the rock wall is in place

Here&#039;s a closer view of the entire rock wall -- first course only.

Looking along the wall.  You can see it&#039;s about two rocks wide.

The second row was a bit trickier.  We had to keep it as level as possible.
