March Madness Yardness

Didn't get much done in the nasty corner, but I did get some work done in the yard. Spent some time cleaning up the perennial raised bed area.. planning out what I want to plant in this area. Moved some river rock from the corner. Needing some soil for the corner. Cleaned up the back patio. I had wanted to work on the "Nasty" East corner, but didn't want to pull out the chipper for just a couple of hours. Instead I am going to wait until spring break so that I can get all the chipping done in one day... which is a lot of chipping. I did get a little bit of digging done in the "nasty corner".. lots of dirt and rock mixed together. Found an old decomposed shelf or board of some kind and a huge inflatable ball or swimming pool of some sort under the dirt... I have a feeling there is going to be a lot of debris coming out of this corner. I am going to rig up a soil sifter for getting the dirt and rock seperated. Or it is going to take me forever to get through this pile of dirt/rock. Phew. Just keep plugging away at it and soon I will see the rewards of my labor. Weather is supposed to turn again, tonight, chance of rain or snow... if it doesn't I am going to hit the nasty corner again tomorrow.
