6:00 PM Life

There was a fair amount of rain overnight so the morning was devoted to letting things dry out. I did manage to cut the trenches for the remaining 12' raised bed but it took me longer to get the mud off my boots than it did to dig the trenches.

In the afternoon I cut all of the end pieces and applied the weatherproofing to the freshly cut ends.
