Progress in the Garden

We are getting a lot accomplished  thanks to the help of two young men from our ward, Morgan and Kyle Janda.  They are hard workers, fast learners and willing to build their muscles with this manly work.  The garden soil arrived today and Morgan somehow volunteered to run the wheelbarrow while Kyle worked on finishing the cinder block wall.  JD worked on the paver stones for the walkway.  Meanwhile I enjoyed watching them work and taking pictures.

Backyard Projects

Well, the Desert Paynes blog has now officially started. Dad and I have been doing back breaking work in the back yard. Actually, Dad does most of the work while I encourage him and come up with other projects. I am including pictures of his completed workbench (which doubles as a cover for our water storage) and the inside of the tool shed which was recently renovated and organized. Things are looking up. The next big project is to make an extension of our raised bed garden.
