Since I garden on a slope and have garden areas on four levels having tools nearby is a must. A friend, who also gardened on a slope, gave me the idea of putting a mail box on each level and keeping extra tools there.
It works for me because the tools are enclosed and I don't have to worry about the weather.
For tools like the shovel mentioned above, I keep a set in the garage at the street level and another set in the garden shed on the house pad level. Otherwise, I'd be going up and down all day to get tools and never get anything done.
Smiles,
Lyn
