Thanks, all.
I'll put the cedar shavings elsewhere then. I need some path material so that might work well toward that project. I know cedar is very slow to decay ... makes great decks and fences. I should have remembered that it has some anti-microbial properties.
That looks really good, chelle. I have the same seasonal stream issue in the very back as well although not quite that much. I lost a couple of big EEs to rot back there last year due to heavy spring rains.
