Gonna Call It An Early Night

The Younger Bird Conjures...
What Else?? The WORM!! HA!!!
Spent the afternoon-- and an absolutely beautiful one it was, too, easily in the mid-50's with nary a cloud to block the sun-- moving grass-- 'cuz I gots a lot o' stuffs to plant... I'd call it killin' grass, but the sod clods I dug up to make some new garden space went to cover a heretofore bare mudpatch.

Anyhow, I'm kinda tired, so ain't gonna invest a lot o' energy here tonight. [LOL! Like that's something different, eh?!!] Here--take a gander at my future squash & melon patch.

Early on:

Then, some fossil fuel-burning clay breakage

and it were done:
The grass went:

Time for a shower, sandwitch, and sleep, folks.

Slainte!

Wow. I guess that ground isn't very hard packed then?

Hope the melons don't climb over into the driveway. That would be awkward. Looking forward to the results. Yum.

Livia-- It was, some; red clay. But the tiller worked some loose. A lot more progress today...

Thanks for the visit, Liv!

Momlady-- thought I'd train the vines to run out on the grass, but I like your idea to put the melons--water-loving things they are-- out back in that 'low' bed. Now, I'm thinking the front a good spot for peppers, bush (green)beans... whatever else lends itself [mayhap some (more!) of the gazillion tomato seedlings we've got sprouting...
I look forward to sharing the fruits-- and veggies! ha!-- of this labor of love. Thanks for all your help and support, Ma..

Slainte, Ladies!
