1,579 pounds of sand..............

........and I'm still not finished filling in all the holes the girls dug during the winter

I think they were trying to dig a hole to freakin China in one place.

When they were loading the truck I thought that would be plenty, but nooooo.

I'll go back when my back decides it likes me again to finish. And what where the little ladies doing while I was filling in their holes, looking at me like what was I doing that for.

Now back to your regular scheduled BYC programming.

Now they have to start all over again! What could you have been thinking??

Edited because typing on the iPad isn't my strongest attribute!

I agree those poor girls must start all over again now...how could you do that to them?

Bet there's a pretty big hole by the end of today.

Well I did "leave" the one's next to the fence. I "only" got the one's that where next to the foundation of the house, one of which was about 6 inches deep and 4 feet wide.

Here in Florida people put downs rocks and mulch and they sink into the sand and dissapear! So China has some variety

My dad tried to tell me I'll never be able to kill that artichoke I planted (as though I would want to).
Well, it seems a couple of free ranging, rototilling yard chickens can.

I think I managed to save the remnants of mine. I put a fence around it! I'll have to enlarge the fence once it gets to growing, but I'm sure hoping I got it in time. Really surprising how those chickens demolished an artichoke plant!!!!!

For some reason they love to both dig around it and lay on the lower leaves. Bugs maybe?
I bought a new one last week and am going to fence it in this time.
