Garden Helpers

The arrival of spring always requires many weekends of hard yard work for Jim. He hauls numerous bags (75-80) of mulch down the hill into the backyard every year to spruce up our woodland garden. He added several more brick borders this year as well, outlining areas that previously weren't so well-defined.


It's always nice to know we have two little helpers living down the street who LOVE to help grandpa with his outdoor work. They are actually learning a lot about gardening, and can't wait for a chance to maneuver the wheel barrow.

Joel got pretty serious about it this year, and wheeled it all the way up the steep incline with a pretty good load inside!

The load can get a little tipsy around those steep curves, but Joel handled it very well, and made it all the way to the top, load intact!

The trails and tiers ended up looking pretty nice when all was said and done!
