GARDEN...A WORK IN PROGRESS

Todd and Michele have been REALLY busy building

these raised Garden Beds. We had to work quickly

while the children were sleeping. Michele would draw

and fit the blocks together whild Todd worked the

saw and cut the pieces. He looked like a grey ghost

when he was done. Then we had to hall all that dirt back

there...but our friends Kylie and Billy helped with that.

Then, Michele put in a drip line that she buried 2 inches

under the dirt. Finally we put in our first plants and

yesterday a huge gust of 70 MPH winds for 7 hours

came and destroyed half of the plants. What a Joy

it is to Grow a Garden in the Desert! That is why it is

a work in progress! But We must say the blocks turned

out pretty good for a couple of amateurs!
