A cold dreary April day. My husband and I put up fencing around the 3 raised beds that I’ll be planting spring crops in soon.

For many of the posts, we ran into rock about 4 inches down. Seems maybe there’s a layer of rocky fill down there.

Suzie and Skippy patiently watched and were soaked by the cold rain by the time we finished. They dug a good hole under the rhododendron for fun and played in the fresh mud. Now, its evening, and they are clean. They got ushered straight into a warm shower and had nice baths.
