Billy ....
Thank you ever so much for the complements. I am still running the mulching marathon. I've brought home 18 bags of mulch and decided to use compost in the rose bed out front with the gopher problem.
I still can't find course sand up here to mix in with the planting soil and still haven't gotten the plants in the photos above planted. I'll have to ask some specific questions when I get to that project later in the week. So far, they are still alive.
I've got three days of temps in the low 90s instead of the low 100s. Maybe I can work longer and get all of the mulching done. I still don't have enough mulch for the whole garden, but I figured I'd get as much down as possible before the next heat wave. Also, tomorrow is deep watering day.
I guess I am saying, I still need all of the encouragement you wonderful people have been giving me. With your help, I'll get there.
Smiles,
Lyn
