My yard, restored

A gloomy day (and chilly, too) but I wanted to run outside and take a few photos of the final grading and clean up they came to do on Monday. I am glad to not have the trenches and piles of dirt anymore. We had a short but intense rain last night and all the drainage seems to be a go. No overflowing downspouts and the sump pump really didn't run much. My husband reminds me that the ground is pretty dry so it may take more rain to really see a difference. I'm happy to just not have a river around my planting beds in the back like we had before (when the sump just kicked water into the yard and it drained back towards the house).
