Progress on the new flower bed

About halfway done here. I think Judy and Darin left to visit Home Despot again. I believe that if we hadn't been in the process of building this flower bed that they would have had to close Home Despot and Lowe's for the weekend.

This is the real working crew. Darin had lots of help from Hayden and Hunter. Those three really "moved" the earth to make this.


More of the guys
"sweating" in the cool of the day. Is 94 degrees considered cool?

Yep, it really looks like it is finished. After a couple of weeks and a few dozen trips to Lowe's, Home Despot and Wal-Mart, the guys placed the border blocks, spread the soil, peat moss and a little mulch to get the finished product. The dogs don't even miss their old trail. (Daughter Kari in a comment to another post, tried to spell their as there, and then corrected it to say thier. I really think I taught her better spelling.)

At least I know how to spell Home Depot!

I also know how to spell Home Depot, but I prefer the more descriptive term "despot", it is not an error...

I'm taking Kari's side on this one because even if you intentionally spelled Home Depot incorrectly, you must have forgotten that all sentences begin with capital letters.
