I made this a “get things done” weekend and crossed some long overdue tasks off my list. Among them, two piles of rocks in the garden.<\/p>\n
First, a small pile of small rocks from when I planted a plum tree. Those I carried away in a few trips with a sturdy bucket. They were neither pretty nor even so those just went into a heap in front of the root cellar. Maybe they’ll help block some weeds.<\/p>\n
And then another group of much larger rocks. One I could carry. The next I could roll. The third one I could barely roll with great effort, and it left a thoroughly flattened path behind it.<\/p>\n
All of those I got up to the house and jiggled into place along the edge of the deck. I think they look decently decorative as a border there. Might be better with a couple more, maybe I can find some somewhere.<\/p>\n
The fourth one is at least twice as large as the third one, so there’s no way I moving that one, especially since it would be mostly uphill. It’s staying right where it is. I can’t believe I even got it out of the ground – that must have been a major effort with the crowbar.
