    Aww Shucks - 5/22/05

    So... remember how I cut the garden out... twice... and then Jul did it once? Well, it's all over now. I bought a tiller, just about as big as they get. Step one, was to get the garden into shape. That tiller is a lot of fun. Though unlike the lawn mower, I let other people use it. I am not quite sure

    The main reason I bought the tiller was not to do the garden, but more to complete redo the lawn. I am not too confident in my lawn making skills. So I sprayed the lawn with something to kill it off, and then took a nap. After the recommended time on the herbicide passed, I went ahead and tilled up my practice piece of lawn, the spot beside the garden. It's relatively unused, so I figured if I screw that up it won't really be noticed.

    Jul and I raked it all out and got rid of the rocks and bigger clumps that were lingering. We did find two other pieces of buried treasure. One, was a big metal tooth like thing. My guess was something from a backhoe, Jul is leaning more toward a tiller blade. The other treasure? An oyster. If anyone can figure out that one, please let me know.
