Progress in the Shop and Progress in the Garden!

We've been working hard here at the MooreMagnets house! 

Hubby spent a lot of time on the tractor this past weekend moving dirt around in the garden and then running the disk harrow over it to loosen it up.  I have to give him props because he sure has gotten better on the tractor! 



When we moved here and got the tractor neither one of us had much experience with a big garden or a tractor.  So after 3 or 4 years the dirt had been moved all over the place creating a lot of mountains (ok hills) and valleys! 

Now it is nice and smooth, and almost ready for planting.  All of that wood needs to be cut and moved to form raised beds.  I'm starting with two for now for some cold weather veggies.  The pallet eyesore is my new compost and there will be a second one on the other corner.  Maybe I'll plant some beans or gourds around them to make the pallets look prettier!

I've been out working in the shop today though.  I have quite a nice stack of work to do there! 

You will be pleased to know that I enjoyed that glass of ice tea before I came in to write this post though!
