It's the time of the year again. It's very dry, the soggy paddocks have dried up and it's the perfect time to dig out all the drains, stockpiling the material for next year and flattening the piles from last year.
While the digger is on site, you also grade all driveways and races, dig up the horse poop in the shelter, transport all the logs from the forest up to the fire pit or for ringing for firewood. Some of the logs were still from 2016.
