Andrew and I had a great day working on the garden today. I built some garden boxes in my backyard last weekend and they needed to be filled with soil…
We started off by going to the Truck Store (U-Haul) to rent a pickup truck. We’ve never owned a pickup so this was very exciting for Andrew! We then went to the Dirt Store (the BURNCO Landscape Centre) to get a load of garden soil. Another big excitement because, although we took our shovels with us to load the truck, the Big Digger filled the truck for us.
The next stop was home where we unloaded the truck with many wheelbarrow’s full of dirt and dumped it into the garden boxes. Of course one truck load wasn’t enough, so we had to do it all over again. The truck was filthy by the time we were done so we had to go to the car wash on the way back to the Truck Store.
Andrew was a great helper all day long and he got involved in every step of the process. The only disappointment for him was when we took the truck back to the truck store. He didn’t realize that we were only borrowing it and he thought we would get to keep it! Oh well, it was fun while it lasted…
I can’t wait to plant the garden now. It still needs to warm up a bit more before I can plant most of my veggies, but I can practically taste them already!
The finished product, ready to be planted!
