Suddenly a Garden Shed Appears

Over the past weekend Allyssia and I started to plant our garden.  As usual my old equipment came to save the day and I rototilled the garden with my old custom Bolens garden tractor.

It is a small little tractor but since I did the diesel engine swap the tractor has been extremely reliable and the best little tractor that I have.

There are so many attachments that come with the Bolens tube frame but all I have is the rototiller the plow and a nice sleeve hitch with a Brinley land plow.





We started planting the garden and of course did not get the garden planted and in the process of planting we had quite a few tools strewn down to the garden and I had to carry them back and fourth to the garage.  Its not like I had to work hard though because I had the bongo truck but I like to think that I had to work hard.  So to save myself all kinds of time and work I spent two days of hard work to build a shed to save some time.  Once built I tipped it onto the bongo truck with the sides down and headed to where it was going to sit.

The shed didnt cost very much to build.  All that I really have in it is the screws.  All of the 2x4's Grampa sawed out as well as the pine boards.  The roofing was left over from another project and was just big enough to fit. 

I didn't have to strap it on because I was only going a a short way but it did want to bounce around. 






I build a little pad out of cinder blocks and set the shed on the cinder blocks.  Even though the shed was a little crooked the pad was level and made up for it. 

As you can see it seems like a lot of work but I swear that this is going to make it easier. 

After the shed was set we could get back to the garden three days later!  We bought a seeder and went to town seeding.  We did buy a bunch of pre-started plants but everything else is just seeds for now.

Now that Its all planted it's just time to to wait for the seeds to sprout and then on to the weeding.  I don't mind weeding but Allyssia hates it!  Anyhow that's it for now but I have better things coming later this week! Stay tuned and check back often!!
