Hi Everyone,
I know I've been REALLY quiet here recently. I've been working hard to finish up my Master's thesis and then to top that off I got a new job. It's a good thing because I actually get to use my degree (adult ed/Org Development). While all this is exciting stuff it has meant little time for keeping in contact with all my wonderful internet friends...Heck even Bob, my fiance', hardly remembers me at this point lol!
So last weekend I actually finished my thesis which means I now have time to start my first garden in Iowa. Yesterday Bob and I broke ground on three new beds. We started with a sod cutter so we can use the sod in other areas that are a little bare or uneven.
The first bed wraps around the deck and will have a water garden as part of it. The other two are the beginnings of my border garden. Since my back border is about 150 feet we decided to do it in stages. One bed is one end and the other bed is the other end. Gradually the two beds will be extended and meet to form one long back border garden.
