February 5, 2013 More pond work and a raised bed by lowering a path.

This shot is just a reference pano. Mainly, it shows the refilled stump hole. That wasn't pleasant. 

The work is slow and painful. Have to get away from it now and then. 
 The pond's rubble pile so far.


So I decided that I wanted some type of raised bed. Seems to be all the rage, and I wanted on-board that band wagon. But instead of raising the bed, I decided to lower the path. And what better spot than the garden that had risen over the years. Logically, it makes sense since I'm just lowering the path to the original surface plane.
I found this...this. Had to ask my grandfather about it. It's a rain gutter turned upside down to cover a waterline that he had installed; it terminates behind the storage shed into a sink used for cleaning fish. The gutter covering was protection from his tiller tines.



 Now, what to do with all of that dirt.
