Garden

 I do container gardening.  I live in an area that had coal mines and since I'm not sure what might be in the soil I buy dirt.  If you are thinking that's crazy it's actually not.  There's a man made lake about 10 miles from my house that they found high amounts of PCBs in the water back in the late 80s.  They told people to restrict eating the fish they catch out of the lake.  So yeah.  I'm not someone who insists on organic, I just don't want to be poisoned.  Anyway today was a nice day and I had a friend come over and help me with expanding my garden area.  My lot isn't big so I expanded lengthwise down the side of the house.  I'm buying more paving stones next week along with more dirt and the lumber I need to build new back steps.  We pulled up a bunch of pavers and put weed barrier fabric down and temporarily took my chicken wire fence down. I live next to a field and there are a lot of deer and other animals that go through there at night.  I'd rather they didn't eat my garden.  So I got a lot accomplished today.
