Today we were digging a trench for the fence we're putting in for the Kingdom Hall. We worked from 9am-2pm. It was hot, the ground was incredibly hard, and we had faulty tools that kept breaking. We loved it.

First we put down a string and broke through with the tools, then we moved the string and did the same on the otherside. After that, we started removing the grass from on top. After the grass was off, we softened the soil by digging into it and breaking up the clumps. The dirt was mixed with clay and rocks, so a few of the tools broke and bent. It was actually extremely hard work in the incredibly hot sun. Good news, the clouds rolled in after we were all done. Figures. :]

EVERY TIME IS TOO FAR

BUT TODAY I HAVE FOUND MY DREAMPLACE

SHELTER FOR MY PAIN

REFUSE EVERY REACTION

I started by digging an entire trench and shoveling the dirt into a garbage can and then laying the compost, then laying the leaves, then covering the whole thing up with the dirt from the can. By the second trench I was through. So I then just dug a square about 2 feet across, then laid in compost, then covered in leaves, then dirt. Here is one such square.
