Family Work Day

We got a lot accomplished today at the property. We built up the begininnings of another garden bed using locust posts. We filled in a different garden bed with topsoil. We spread grass seed and planted flox flowers at key points along the driveway. Oh, and I learned how to drive the Kubota!

Shoveling dirt is hard work. Good thing Harding was there to help us! Filthy happy boy playing in the dirt. Wildflowers like this bloodroot are popping up everywhere. Nice view from "MoMo's Rock" near the top of the property:


Matt mixes grass seed while Barbara tries in vain to get Shelby Frances to take a nap. Shelby won again!

Catching up on spring

Ashlee toting rock, Barbara working on her Queen elizabeth wave, Matt doing the dirt work, and me just pruning the grapes.  Spring is on the way.

Matt doing the least fun thing imaginable.  Moving dirt from down below to the next veggie bed
