  1. Would prefer to drop one of these on the asshole that just can't seem to swing wide enough when turning down the alley way next to my house.

  2. For small walls maybe about 3ft or less this is fine. But for larger walls drainage needs rmto be considered and the rocks should be turned 90 degrees into the hill. Basically the short side is the side you should see once the hill is done. Not the long side. Otherwise its just going to fall apart in a few years.

  3. I love this natural look. The elevation change is so interesting. Thanks for the video. Time to re-do the yard! Do you start at the bottom or top??
