Ah spring, when a young mans thoughts turn to the garden  this is my first stab at a garden in a few years, the last one didn't turn out so well cause I'm lazy. Ok so the youngest son and I spent the last three days hand digging this 20x40 spot. The soil samples will be done on Monday, and I have brussel sprouts and tomatoes under the grow light inside......

I heard that Max1, but that's okay I won't tell anybody, LOL
J/K...I think it's great that men get into gardening, my son just started working at the garden center at Walmart and he loves it, even though he would never even water the plants and flowers for me at home...btw great job you and your son did

I hope he told his buddies about the spot over the winter. Other than that, I've got all kinds of birds out the waazoo because of the feeders. Now I have a resident hawk who feeds on them leaving feathers and bird heads everywhere. Maybe that was a little TMI. Good luck with the garden.
Garden Magic
This is the garden's magic,
That through the sunny hours
The gardener who tends it, Himself outgrows his flowers.
He grows by gift of patience,
Since he who sows must know
That only in the Lord's good time
Does any seedling grow.
He learns from buds unfolding,
From each tight leaf unfurled,
That his own heart, expanding,
Is one with all the world.
He bares his head to sunshine,
His bending back a sign
Of grace, and ev'ry shower becomes
His sacramental wine.
And when at last his labors
Bring forth the very stuff
And substance of all beauty
This is reward enough.
-MARIE NETTLETON CARROLL
