callistra: Fuschia from Sinfest crying her heart out next to Hell's flames (Default)
Sunday we had a grubby nails meet, and we finally got our nails grubby! First, 2 photos of what the pool area used to look like, and then 2 photos from yesterday morning. Sunday's Grubby Nails meet has obviously enthused me, and I started working on getting the second bed going. I'm hoping to be putting seeds in it by Saturday! Big thanks to the grubby nails group! Yay!


Pool Area/Vegie Patch Pool Area/Vegie Patch
This pic is from months and months and months ago. Maybe even a year. I said: "This is going to be the vegie patch and chicken coop area. Right now it's a weedbowl and holding pen for crap. It had kikuyu and patterson's curse in it. I'm impressed at the sheer different types of weeds that was in the dirt the Dingo Man procured for us. He must have mixed the weeds in specially. :-) Also note my Birds of Paradise at the front there. And the pinkish blur to the right is my finger."
Pool Area Pool Area
This pic is from the same time as the one above. "Another view of the pool area."
No Humps! No Humps!
The humps of topsoil are gone! Still some more digging and raking to go, but almost completely gone

The garden is begun! This is my entry way to the veggie garden.

Wow, that's starting to look nice and healthy. Did you have the pool removed?

Yeah, a couple of years ago.

uhm, silly question, but, what happened to the pool? fill it with dirt or was it removed?

It was an aboveground pool that had been sunk. We arranged for Mr Dingo (that's his business name) to come and fill it in, and he arranged for the dirt to be delivered and then he came and filled it in.
