Garden - first stage

So check out what we've been doing to our yard. We rented a sod lifter and cut our garden design out... well, Paul cut it out. There was no way I could manage that machine! It did in less than an hour (not including the sod removal and clean up) what it would have taken us days to carve out by hand. Thank goodness for tools... and my strong husband. I never realized how heavy sod is! He also did a beautiful job with the lines - better than my lines on paper.

It's a work in process but it's a good start - we'll be posting process shots as we go.
