Bucket By Bucket
We have started to work on the top layer of smooth gravel for the half-mile long loop nature trail at Distant Hill Gardens. Paul Beliveau, a high-school intern funded by the Hooper Institute in Walpole, is helping spread the roughly 300 yards of gravel need to finish the trail.
The gravel is being brought in bucket by bucket with our Kubota tractor. We had rented a special dump tractor called a Goldoni to speed things up, but its emergency brake malfunctioned the first day of use and the machine rolled into the swimming pond at Distant Hill.
