Order

With many things there is an order of operations.  That was forgotten by me until I had another raised garden bed put together.  What should have happened before putting together the raised beds was for me to create the place where they are going to go.  I still put together more of the raised beds, but they are not at all complete. 

A pile of boxes on the first raised bed I put together.

Together, but not really complete.

Less boxes...
Always a good thing.

 I am happy with my plans for the raised beds, hopefully the execution of the plans will go well.  Other happy things for today:

• Part of preparing the spot for the raised beds is to remove the Egyptian walking onions.  I pulled a bunch out and I am storing them on the porch until the bed is prepared. 
• Since I had out the tools for pulling up plants, I pulled up some of the lily-of-the-valleys that are overcrowded.  Ideally, most of what is in that area will be pulled out and thinned before the end of the month.  At least I have it started.
• Aesop and I had a nice walk this morning on the road and through the property.  Thankfully I didn't fall this time!    

The sun is coming up.

• Sometimes snippets are overheard.  The context is unknown, but I heard Zed stay, "Let's be realistic, we're pretty cool parents."
• I remembered to get the SD card from the wildlife camera.  Unfortunately, it went through the wash.  Fortunately, I had already downloaded the video.  I may buy a new card tomorrow.
• Bee.
