Two loads of this...

...equals five box planters, three days (less if it wasn't so bloody hot), 30 bucks in deck screws, 5 bucks in drill bits, and twenty battery charges for my sweet makita chica light weight drill (two batteries, so I never had to wait on the charger only waiting was on rejuvinating chica power).

now I will have to see if I can grow anything to fruition--well gravel, soil and mulch first.

Ahhhh. I am almost ready to plant my first fall garden ever. Yipee. If it goes well, I'll make five more boxes. If not, illthrow some hearty shrubs in those boxes and just have nonedible green space.
