more gardening adventures

Well spring is here and that is definately time to spruce up the garden. There is so much to do now that the renovation has finished. We have had lots of visitors and lots of advice about what to do and today we got started with one section in the back yard. Jimmy got out his rotary hoe and churned up the ground. We had been watering it all week to try to soften the ground, but it was hard work. This is the first time we have used the rotary hoe, and it was fun, in a hard work kind of way. It certainly was much easier than digging by hand.

Once we raked over the area and tossed some lawn seed about we were ready for watering. With a bit of luck, in 10 days, we will having the makings of a lawn! I'll let you know how we go.
Cheers
Helen
