Rocks In My Head

Well the rocks ain't exactly in my head they are more like on the trail.  You see we have two spots on the main trail that are really wet in the spring and get super trashed when we are doing the whole firewood gathering thing, consequently they look like crap once things dry out.  And because I am out of paint, and am holding off driving into the city to pick some up, I have decided to see if I can do some road repair on the smaller of the two spots.  (The big spot will need some backhoeing and a culvert, and will need four hands instead of two, so must wait for the return of the hubby to complete.)  Anyway I started a little bit yesterday...damn I should have taken a "before" pic.  My method of operendii is to see if I can find relatively large, flat rocks, and lay them down into the deep areas, then take smaller rocks and use them as fill.  Then, hopefully, find sand and or dirt of some kind and pour to pack them in tight.  It probably won't work but what's the worst that can happen?  :)
